Francisco Calvillo, a professional sand sculpture artist, pointed out that on average it can take a person experienced in this technique between one and three days to make a “sand castle”, depending on the complexity of the piece, but keeping it humid it can last up to a month to be appreciated.
The sculptor, originally from Guadalajara, said that among the figures that can be appreciated, there will be lighthouses, octopuses, turtles, and groupers, species in the mating period that led to the creation of this festival.
