MDSS Presents: Tooth & Tonic Sunset Cruise

As the sun dips below the horizon, the sky bleeds in shades of fire and rose. The air thickens with the scent of salt, tequila, and possibility. You step onto the vessel, and the world shifts — each wave a whisper, each breeze a promise. The rhythm of the night calls, intoxicating, elusive.

In this moment, time bends. The music, the laughter, the endless horizon all blur into one. But somewhere, beneath the glow of fading light, the question lingers: Will you chase the night or surrender to its mysteries?

Celebrate World Oral Health Day with us!

Stop by our Bake Sale for delicious treats AND check out our second-hand instruments!

Thursday 20th March | GWT (RDHM Level G)
