También son importantes los llanos de San Juan Bautista y las sierras de Bacatete, Bayoreca y Álamos. Hay más de un millón de hectáreas protegidas y varias especies animales en peligro de extinción, como la totoaba, la vaquita marina, el borrego Cimarrón (o muflón de las Rocosas) y el berrendo.

Los ríos de Sonora pertenecen a la vertiente del océano Pacífico y desembocan en el golfo de California; entre los ríos principales destacan el Colorado, el Sonoíta, el Concepción, el San Ignacio, el Yaqui, el Moctezuma, el Sonora y el Mayo. Presenta un clima seco o árido en la llanura costera, semiseco en las vertientes montañosas y templado subhúmedo en las partes más elevadas de las sierras. La vegetación más extendida en las dunas costeras es el matorral: mezquite, palo verde, gobernadora (larrea tridentata) y sangregado (una planta de la familia de las euforbiáceas). También Sonora cuenta con bosques mixtos de coníferas (se explotan especies maderables como el pino) y encinos (roble), selvas bajas (palo brasil, torote y mauto) y pastizales de aprovechamiento forrajero (zacate).

The most widespread vegetation in the coastal dunes is the scrubland: mesquite, greenwood, governor (larrea tridentata) and sangugado (a plant of the euphorbiaceae family). Sonora also has mixed coniferous forests (timber species such as pine) and oaks (oak), low forests (Brazil, torote and mauto) are exploited and forage grasses (grass).

Entre las áreas naturales protegidas cabe destacar la Reserva Especial de la Biosfera Isla Tiburón, las Reservas de la Biosfera Alto Golfo de California y Delta del Río Colorado y El Pinacate y Gran Desierto de Altar, y la Reserva de caza Cajón del Diablo
