Zihuatanejo has registered 161 confirmed Covid-19 cases (83 recovered) and still 26 confirmed deaths. Deaths have occurred that are suspected to be from Covid-19, but until the lab results are available they are not confirmed.

Too many tourists are ignoring the health safety measures, and the local government failed miserably yesterday at Playa La Ropa, especially allowing the totally illegal enramadas between La Gaviota and El Capricho del Rey to operate where tourists were congregating ignoring safety measures and drinking to excess according to numerous eyewitness accounts. Fortunately most of these tourists go back wherever they came from the same day. If this keeps up our beaches will close again. It's bad enough that decent families who travel with their pets no longer come here thanks to a couple of La Ropa businesses and a local government that doesn't honor agreements it makes with local lodging and restaurant operators who overwhelmingly voted to continue allowing pets accompanied by their responsible owners on our beaches.

The pier was "officially opened" today just a few minutes ago. If you go there please remember to practice extreme sanitary measures because too many people going there are not. I've been watching them much of the morning. The gobernador was there and he's still sick with the virus. But at least the water taxis and charter captains have a pier to use again. I'll post some photos either tonight or tomorrow, time permitting.

Remember, if you want to go sportfishing, whale watching or just want to take a sunset cruise, see m recommendations here on my website.

Big red moonrise that my iPhone camera can't do justice to.

These boogie boarders were having a great time
