Puerto Peñasco celebrated the 73rd anniversary of Día de la Marina, paying homage to those of the sea with floral wreaths in the water and at foot of monument to Shrimp fishermen on the malecón.

Navy personnel, city officials, and students gathered on the malecón this morning to pay homage to Mexican marines who have fallen in defense of the nation, and in honor of fishermen who earn their living by setting out to sea day after day.
