Looking at stars, we noticed a shooting star moving in an unnatural way.

On our vacation in Mexico, my fiancé and I were sitting on the beach at approximately 10:30 PM on April 19th. We were laying back on a blanket, and looking at the stars and listening to the waves. I noticed a star appear in the sky, and see it shoot out to the east, out towards the ocean. I quickly tap my fiancé and tell her to look at the shooting star. We are both watching the star as it quickly stops, spins once, and zips to the south. Me and my fiancé get up from the blanket, and follow the star as it shoots back to the east, spins twice more and disappears. All this happened in a span of 6-7 seconds. We go back to lay on the blanket, keeping our eyes to the sky trying to spot it again, from the east we see another light the size of a star move in a floating pattern to the north, and then shoots west over the hotels and disappears. This spanned a total of about 3-4 seconds. We stayed out for another 30 minutes trying to spot it or something like it, but we didn’t see anything else and went back inside.
