I never knew there could be so many variations of desert until about half way down the peninsula when I realized just how variable desert landscapes and climates can be!

This lady is full of potential, and at just 17 years of age, we can’t wait to see where she goes after taking home the Lady’s Master of the Ocean title.

Both really know what sportsmanship and humbleness mean, but aren’t afraid to spice things up with some silliness. Cabarete will miss you guys, thanks for making it!!
