🔥 Sunset Sessions at The Rusty Compass 🔥
December 16–22 | 5pm-ish (because who wears a watch here anyway?)
We’ve got a week so hot, the sand’s gonna be jealous. Here’s your lineup of badass beats and good vibes:
🎶 Dec 17: DJ Travis All Day – spinning tunes smoother than your tequila.
🎸 Dec 18: Bandidos – live music that'll make you wanna rob a bank (or just order another round).
💃 Dec 19 + 20: DJ Travis All Day – back by popular demand, 'cause this guy knows how to throw down.
🎤 Dec 21: Chido Rivera – smooth sounds under the stars, perfect for beachside swaying.
🌊 Dec 22: Trova Del Mar – serenading you right into a sunset so pretty it’ll make your ex jealous.
Good drinks. Good music. Questionable decisions. Don’t miss it. 🌅🍻
🌅 Sunset Sessions Are Here, You Party Animals! 🎶🔥
Mark your calendars and cancel your plans—The Rusty Compass is serving up sunsets and live tunes that’ll have you feeling more alive than that first sip of tequila. 🍹🌴
🎤 Here’s what’s going down:
👉 Dec 10: Nahuales – Start the week with a vibe that’ll make you forget what day it is.
👉 Dec 11: Bandidos – Bringing the heat and stealing your hearts (and probably your last round).
👉 Dec 14: Chido Rivera – Cooler than the other side of the pillow and twice as groovy.
👉 Dec 15: Trova Del Mar – Smooth tunes to wrap up the week like a warm ocean breeze.
When? 5 pm-ish. Because time is just a suggestion when you're living your best life.
Get here, grab a drink, and let the music do the rest. 🏝️🎵 Cheers to sunsets, sand, and sweet, sweet sounds!
🎥 Cue epic music 🎥
Hey there, beach bums, tequila enthusiasts, and those of you who "just stopped in for one drink" (yeah, right 😏)... Thanks for checking us out and giving us a whirl! Whether you've been cannonballing into the pool, singing along to our live music like no one's listening (trust us, we are), or diving headfirst into our tequila lineup—y'all make this place what it is: an absolute blast. 🙌
Now, we’re doing a vibe check. Are we killin’ it? Are we missin’ the mark? Do you love our Sueños margaritas more than your ex (or at least more than they loved you)? Or are we seriously slacking on your favorite drink, snack, or mood-setting playlist?
Hit us with your thoughts—what’s got you coming back, what’s making you roll your eyes, and what would keep you here ‘til the sun goes down and then comes back up again. Be honest, be bold, and hey—if you roast us, at least make it funny.
Drop your comments below and help us make The Rusty Compass even better. Because we’re all about good times, great people, and zero regrets (except maybe that third tequila shot… you know the one). 🌴🍹🔥
Cheers to you, legends! 🥂
🍹 It’s Friday—You Know What That Means! 🍹
Cocktail time, baby! Nothing pairs better with the weekend than a Sueños Tequila masterpiece enjoyed poolside. This is your sign to kick back, sip something amazing, and let those beachy vibes take over. 🌴☀️
P.S. We don’t allow glass near the pool because we like to keep things safe and fun. But hey, since we make the rules, we bent them for the sake of this picture. Don’t try this at home—or here. 😂
📍 On the Malecón in Villa Obregón
🎶 Live Music This Friday at The Rusty Compass! 🎶
Kick off your weekend with an unforgettable evening of Latin, Blues, Folk, and Originals by the incredibly talented Juan Martinez & Teri Tibbett. 🌴🎤 Their soulful sound and heartfelt tunes are the perfect pairing for your beachside Friday vibes.

Bring your friends, grab a cocktail, and let’s toast to great music, great food, and great times. 🍹✨
🚪 Closed Today: It’s Monday, and We Don’t Do Mondays 🚪
Mondays? No, thanks. We’re taking the day off to recharge (and let our livers recover). But don’t worry—The Rusty Compass will be back slinging drinks, serving up delicious food, and bringing the vibes tomorrow.
In the meantime, we’re feeling extra grateful and a little sentimental, so we’re sharing a look back at our first two weeks! 🥹 A huge THANK YOU to everyone who’s stopped by, raised a glass, enjoyed the music, and made memories with us. You’ve made this beachfront dream come to life, and we can’t wait to see you again.
We’re beyond grateful to everyone who’s stopped by and helped make The Rusty Compass the incredible place it is. It’s not just the drinks, the food, or the beach—it’s you that makes this space so special.

Stop by today and let’s make some memories you probably won’t regret. Probably.
☔ Rain, Rain, Go Away... ☔

Ready or not, The Bandidos are hitting our beachside stage at 5:30 PM sharp tonight, and trust us—you don’t want to be the one hearing about it tomorrow. These guys are bringing rock, tequila, and pure chaos to the Malecón, and all you have to do is show up, grab a drink, and brace yourself for one hell of a night.
Beach vibes? Check. Killer tunes? Check. Enough tequila to fuel your questionable choices? You bet. So cancel your plans, ditch your excuses, and come down to The Rusty Compass for the kind of night that’ll make your liver send a formal complaint.
See you there if you can handle it. 🤘🌴🥃
🔥 TOMORROW NIGHT: The Bandidos Are Taking Over The Rusty Compass! 🔥
Get ready to rock, Melaque! Tomorrow at 5:30 PM, The Bandidos are hittin' The Sueños Tequila Stage and they’re bringing the noise. Expect killer tunes, cold tequila, and the kind of night that’ll make your liver file for early retirement. Más tequila, por favor! 🥃
So grab your friends, your questionable life choices, and get down here for a night of pure, unfiltered beachside chaos. This isn’t just another Wednesday—it’s gonna rock, be a bit wild, and maybe a little blurry. See you there if you can handle it. 🤘🌴
🔥 The Muppet Show is Rockin’ the Rusty Compass Stage! 🔥
If you’re not here, you’re missing out on Salvador & Tavo shredding like it’s their last night on Earth. The drinks are flowing, the music’s musicing, and the beach has never felt more alive. 🎸🌴
Come down to the Malecón, grab a cold one, and let The Muppet Show remind you what live music is all about. This is what The Rusty Compass was made for—good times, great music, and absolutely zero regrets.
🔥 Meet the Dream Team Behind the Chaos 🔥
We didn’t just magically appear on the Malecón with cold beers and hot grills—this crew worked their asses off to make it happen. From hauling, hammering, taste-testing (the hardest job, obviously), and putting up with our ridiculous demands, these legends turned a wild idea into the beachside cantina you’ll never forget (or might not remember at all).
Raise a glass to the ones who made it happen, and get ready to see their friendly faces serving up the good times at The Rusty Compass. They’re the heart, soul, and tequila-pouring hands behind everything you’re about to love here.
Come say hi, grab a drink, and let’s make some memories (and maybe a few questionable choices). Cheers to this amazing crew! 🥃🔥
🎸 The Rusty Compass Presents: The Muppet Show! 🎸
Our stage is officially ready for its debut, and we're kicking it off with none other than The Muppet Show featuring Salvador & Tavo! Expect mind-blowing vocals, wild vibes, and a show that’ll leave your liver questioning all your life choices.
Come join us on the Malecón in Villa Obregón for the first of many evenings filled with live music, cold drinks, and questionable decisions. The fun starts at 4 PM, today—don't miss it!
Think you can keep up with Salvador & Tavo? Come find out. And yes, we promise there’ll be tequila.
We’re officially OPEN! 🎉
The wait is over—The Rusty Compass Cantina is ready to serve up the good times! Come find us right on the Malecón in Villa Obregón and dive into a day (or night) of cold drinks, sizzling skewers, loaded nachos, and music that’ll keep you here ‘til closing.
Whether you're a local, a traveler, or just passing by, come raise a glass, grab a bite, and join the party. The drinks are cold, the vibes are hot, and we can't wait to see you here!
The countdown’s on! November 11th, The Rusty Compass opens and you better come hungry.
We’re serving up juicy skewers, loaded nachos, epic burgers, and tequila that’ll have you making new memories (and maybe a few questionable choices).
Mark the date, gather your crew, and come see what we’re all about.
Why settle for drinks by the pool when you could be living your best life in it? 🍹💦 At The Rusty Compass, the line between pool and party doesn’t exist. Bring your sunscreen, your questionable dance moves, and your ‘why not?’ attitude – we’ll take care of the rest.
Get ready to drink like a fish, laugh like you mean it, and make some splashy memories. Coming soon to Melaque – hydration has never been this much fun.
🔥 Introducing the Sueñosmash Burger 🔥
Yeah, you heard right. We’ve officially put something in your face besides cocktails, tequila, and sunsets. Meet the Sueñosmash Burger, our unapologetically stacked, juicy tower of grilled greatness. Two beef patties smashed to crispy perfection, layered with melty cheese, fresh lettuce, tomatoes, pickles, and a sauce so good you’ll want to write it love letters.
This bad boy’s got attitude—and it pairs disturbingly well with a cold beer or a Sueños tequila shot. So bring your hunger (and maybe a few napkins) because once you go Sueñosmash, there’s no going back. 🍔🔥
Only at The Rusty Compass Cantina. We’re here to feed your wild side.
If Willie Nelson can tour for decades, party on his tour bus, and still make it to every gig, you can definitely survive a day at The Rusty Compass. We’ve got cold drinks, good vibes, and absolutely no judgment. Bring your sense of adventure—and maybe a guitar if you’re feelin’ it. You won’t remember half of it, but trust us, you’ll feel it tomorrow.
BREAKING NEWS: Apparently, we now have a website (because apparently running one killer social account wasn’t enough). Some “website guy” showed up with his dial-up modem and a mission. 🙄
So yeah, you could visit www.rustycompasscantina.com… OR, ya know, you could just hang out here where the real party’s at. 🤷♂️
#WhoNeedsAWebsite #SocialMediaIsLife #WebsiteGuySucks
#WebSiteGuySucks
Everyone’s asking, ‘Where the hell is The Rusty Compass?’ Well, guess what? We’re parked right next to Sueño Del Sol and across the Malecón. Look for the X, and get ready for the best (and probably worst) decisions you’ll ever make.
No excuses now—if you can’t find us, you’re just not drunk enough yet.
