Sponsored by Las Palomas Beach & Golf Resort
Local schools get out this weekend for the two-week stretch encompassing “Semana Santa” (Holy Week). Yes, this is the time of year where bandas can be heard on nearly every doorstep or under any beach palapa, and come Easter weekend tuba necks stretch over the malecón like macho sea lions protecting their territory (By far the busiest days will be the 18th – 21st). The weather has been spectacular, our sea is warming up, and we’re ready to run down the weekend!
