Still no Covid-19 update from Guerrero's health officials.

This Thursday was cloudy and rainy much of the day, but if the passing tropical storm moves quickly as is predicted then the weekend could still turn out to be nice, though the surf will probably be pretty high and the water dirty from the rains.

The puerto de Zihuatanejo is currently closed to navigation due to the passing of Tormenta Tropical Beatriz which is expected to form a hurricane just as it nears our coast sometime early this Friday morning. Winds are expected to be strong along our coast which also means there will be large waves and beach erosion. Take precautions and keep an eye on the local weather forecasts.

There's hardly been any tourists around all week. It's been rough for local merchants. We can't all own (or inherit from our parents) restaurants on the beaches which seem to be the only local businesses besides Oxxo and Ixtapa's all-included hotels doing much business. I expect there will be quite a few cancellations due to the weather this weekend.

It looks like the events planned for this weekend's Orgullo Gay celebrations may be affected by Beatriz.

The hillsides are all a lush green again. So beautiful to see. This is my favorite time of year!

Summer is a great time of year to enjoy waterfront lodging at Playa Manzanillo where surfers enjoy the waves rolling in from far away storms. Casa de los Sueños Tropicales is an excellent beachfront vacation home on the point of Manzanillo Beach in the Troncones community 30 minutes north of Ixtapa. Perfect for two couples or a family.
