This Spring Break rundown sponsored by Beach Bum on the Mirador
…and just like that, Bam! It’s Spring Break! Yep, it’s that time so be sure you have your ID with you (remember drinking age in Mexico is 18), use your sunscreen and don’t check your brains at the border! We are looking forward to lots going on in town throughout the whole month of March as we’ve got Spring Break and on the heels of that it’ll be Semana Santa (NOTE: Easter weekend is easily one of the busiest times in town!! Just sayin…).
Let’s get to it and run down Spring Break….Week 1!
FRIDAYS! 12 p.m. – 1 p.m. In town? Tune into 106.1 FM to hear Sami on air with host Felix Rincón to chat about what’s coming up in Rocky Point as they count down the top 5 stories and hits! Online: http://www.player.audiorama.mx/stream/penasco/ [Click on 40 Principales]
