Not every all-American holiday has to be spent in the USA. Especially as the long weekends of the summer holidays invite travelers to find a beach, a margarita, and authentic tacos to celebrate with, beginning with Memorial Day, a holiday that has its roots in the spring, but is often used as a kickoff to summer’s freedom! Heading south of the border to the world’s luckiest fishing village, Rocky Point, Mexico, promises to give celebrants a holiday they will never forget, especially when choosing FMI Rentals for their holiday hideaways! Offering comfort, relaxation, and some of the best views in the country, you can still enjoy an exciting Memorial Day and pay homage to our fallen heroes! This guide to spending your Rocky Point Memorial Day Weekend will give you something to look forward to as well as helping you find all the ways to celebrate in a new land!
Blue Skies and Clear Waters
There may not be a parade honoring those who sacrificed everything for our freedoms, but when you stake your claim on a section of a beach, you can always take a moment of silence to pay homage to their bravery. Our military has fought for our freedoms for hundreds of years and we like to think that the freedom to enjoy a long weekend on a beautiful beach is something they continue to fight for today! Add a patriotic touch while wearing a red swimsuit, white flip flops, and blue sunglasses as you relax and release all the stress of your real life on the sandy shores of the Sea of Cortez. Let the sounds of the sea lull you into a peaceful state or listen to your favorite music under sunny skies, reveling in the heat of the sun, the briny scent of the breezes tousling your hair, and the laughter and excitement of fellow beachgoers and the realization that this may be your newest tradition for the summer holidays!
Do Something Adventurous
A horseback ride on the beach (courtesy of El Establo Ranch) at dawn, a sunset cruise through EcoFun Adventures, or parasailing over the sea (also with EcoFun Adventures!) all of these activities might not have entered your mind during your at home celebrations, but you are in Rocky Point this year and it is time to broaden your horizons! Americans are known for their sense of adventure, bravery, and fun and the land south of our border provides a plethora of ways to experience excitement. And for a happy bonus, all the pictures you take from any of your Mexican adventures are guaranteed to earn the envy of your American friends back home doing nothing more than having a barbecue in their backyards!
More Time to Shop
When we scroll through our own social media sites, we notice that there are a lot of summer birthdays and if you are experiencing the same, why not take the extra hours of your Mexican getaway to enjoy some pre-birthday gift shopping? We can promise the gifts you purchase from local shops will not resemble anything you may have previously ordered online and the recipients will adore your unique and oh so thoughtful purchases! The Rodeo Drive of Rocky Point, Cholla Mall, is destined to have something you never knew you needed until you found it sitting on the shelf in the store. Don’t be surprised if your luggage ends up being a lot heavier on your return trip to the United States!
At Home for the Rocky Point Memorial Day Weekend with FMI Rentals
As you shop, play, and explore all that is amazing about Rocky Point, every morning will begin and end with the most comfortable of adventures, right here in one of our FMI Rentals holiday havens! You don’t even have to forgo any of your Memorial Day traditions but can modify them by adding a touch of Mexico to each activity!
Barbecue in the backyard but instead of grilling hot dogs and hamburgers, guests can barbecue snapper or halibut that was the catch of the day on your fishing charter you took in the early part of your weekend. (Blue Fin Fishing Charters, 480-704-4250 is a popular charter company!)
A pool party can be enjoyed with margaritas as your touch of Mexico, prepared in our fully equipped kitchens, when back home you might have supplied a cooler filled with beers! Another twist you can experience in your Memorial Day celebrations is a rooftop party that offers views of the sand, sea, and sunset; not every FMI Rentals holiday haven provides a rooftop patio, but now that you know they do exist we suspect you will search for the ones that do!
The Importance of Family
The most important holiday tradition is the one in which you celebrate with family and our family homes make it easy to do just that! Reserve your favorite holiday haven today!
