I am wondering if there is a website that shows the actual map of the Blue Flag zone on La Ropa? I would love to be able to print that out and show it to someone if I am hassled with my dog on the “legal” part of the beach.

We rented a place for a month as we are nearing retirement and are scoping out possible places to live…..but had I known then that dogs aren’t allowed on most of the beaches in Zihuatenejo I wouldn’t have booked this. We definitely want to land somewhere that is super dog friendly.

Gracias!

looks like at least one business is pushing the "Blue Flag" on La Ropa

You can see my comment on that post, for the ½ centavo it's worth in Fb cyberspace.

I thought that the blue flag area did not extend the full length of the beach. The linked post implies that it does. Which is correct?

Wishful Thinking on Francisco's part! I'll go with Talley! She's the one with the dogs!

"He isn't the person responsible for the Blue Flag farce. That is squarely on the mayor."

He may not be responsible, but he is certainly enforcing it and promoting it! Personally speaking he has lost business with this attitude. As we all know, there are families who have decided not to come to Zihua because of this, so because of the mayor and two other people a lot of business has been lost at a time when they could least afford it! In my mind, he owns a portion of this!

Really? every time we go there the place is full.

When I read all of the information on line when it was first introduced, it showed the end of the blue flag area being at the Mercadito de Artisanias between Villa Mexicana and The Thompson. When the south sign was first installed, it was in front of the center of The Thompson. It was removed and reappeared later at the south end.

With the higher tides in the summer, the sign would not survive except well away from the water line.

Yes, when the current mayor's wife, Lizette Tapia, was in charge of the municipal office of Dimaren (Ecología) during the administration of Eric Fernández not very long ago we had a meeting of over a hundred hotel owners, lodging operators, restaurant owners, turisteros and affected residents. She wanted to ban pets on the beaches. Of the over 100 people present, only Francisco and one other person voted in favor of banning pets.

Francisco is a long-time dear friend. I can agree to disagree with him on this. He has his reasons and his beliefs and I have mine. He isn't the person responsible for the Blue Flag farce. That is squarely on the mayor.
