La PaZIHencia Costeña

Came to Zihua at the end of October and Cabo for Thanksgiving. What a difference, Cabo had plenty of gringos and while in Ixtapa for a week we only saw 1 other group of gringos and that was on Isla Ixtapa. We ate dinner most every night in Zihua and all the places were really dead. Not the case in Cabo, the marina area was very busy. Zihua just doesn’t attract new tourists anymore from the States. Most all the gringos that travel here are older and believe that traveling is too risky for them. Coming from California there are so many flights going to Cabo and so few going to Zihua. We discovered this place almost 20 years ago when we used to cruise, maybe with the new pier the ships might come back and some younger people will discover Zihua. Zihua already had declining tourism before Covid now it has basically only National tourists which from what I saw at the Azul Grand do little for the local economy.
