Health officials for Guerrero report they currently register 33 active cases of Covid-19 in Zihuatanejo, 5 in La Unión, 1 in Petatlán, 2 in Técpan, 200 in Acapulco, and 1,135 for the entire state.

I couldn't help but feel bad for the tourists who are here since it rained most of Saturday in Zihuatanejo. Lovely weather for us who enjoy the cool temps and the rich verdant growth the rains bring. There were quite a few out on the beach early this morning, many fresh off buses, others already in swimsuits and in the water. They certainly beat the rains.

Saw several sets of turtle tracks on the beach this morning. It looks like they may be starting to show up in greater numbers on Playa Principal. Several nests were quite close to the waterline while other tracks ran up into the concrete walkway and followed it until running into fishing boats beached in front of La Cancha. It didn't look like they nested either. Lucky if they made it back into the water. Too many bright lights and too many obstacles on the beach are negatively affecting their nesting.

If you want to really see some turtles nesting and hatching, I highly recommend Casa de La Tortuga at Playa Blanca. A 2-BR apartment with a pool. Guests can participate in the release of baby sea turtles because the apartment is used to raise funds for the Campamento Tortuguero Ayotlcalli located on the same property.
