Sat 11/21 10:30AM--- Navy ship will be sunk with explosives


Rosarito Beach area. They are sinking some navy ships for an underwater park. Hard to pin down a time and place, but one poster said 10:30 Nov. 21st.. So if you are into watching explosions in ships, and/or sinking ships, and you`re in the neighborhood, take a look.

some info--- https://parquesubmarino.com/

They`re saying 12PM or maybe 12:10 because the ship is #121. Should be a great show for the whole family!!!

It is supposed to be sunk almost in front of Puerto Nuevo, just a tad north by the big off shore rock...the gringo gazette had a live camera link.

OK a few things. Sign said $100 pesos but it was actually $50 pesos per vehicle (4 wheel drive advisable). This was at the sand dunes south of Cantarmar or Primo Tapia. There was a Tecate tent, food trucks, atv`s for rent, loud music and everything else you can associate with a great Mexican party. Lots of families, some enjoying the beach, some enjoying the sand dunes, everyone there to see the ship blow up and sink. Or to the PC crowd, to see the first phase of a marine park. The sight of that ship going down stern first, bow in the air was amazing. Here are some pics found on their FB page, I`m sure a video will surface soon haha!
