San Pedrana Reigns over Costa Maya Festival

San Pedrana, twenty-six-year-old Michelle Nunez won the coveted title of La Reina De La Costa Maya 2017. Nunez also walked away with the title for Best Costume for the night, following a preliminary competition for cultural attire earlier this week and the onstage presentation for national costume. The eight delegates from the Central American countries and Mexico sashayed their way across the stage on Thursday night in swimsuit and evening wear, before the dreaded final question to determine the titleholder. There were many crowd favorites, but in the end, the judges had their say and Belize came out on top. Miss Panama and Miss Nicaragua captured second and third place respectively. Here are some of the highlights from the pageant:
