A local “whale whisperer” once responded when asked what comes after the fin whales, “that would be Spring Breakers”. Whether or not they got the memo, the whales seem to be departing our shores once more and many whale-watching trips have turned to whale-seeking and dolphin frolicking jaunts. Now, we turn to Spring Breaker spotting as the weather warms up.
Get out your calendars and let’s run down what’s up in Rocky Point! (NOTE: The Rocky Point Triathlon at Las Palomas scheduled for April has been postponed to 2022)
