SensaZIHones Tropicales

For lovers of the tropics, it's hard to beat life in Zihuatanejo. The weather is perfect. The protected bay is one of the most beautiful of the entire American Pacific Coast. The people are warm, friendly, close-knit and unpretentious. The food is fresh, healthy and always delicious. The culture is fascinating. And it feels far away from the madness that seems to have overtaken so much of the world. But we must be careful that the madness doesn't find us here. It certainly tries!

I especially love the feeling of being among family that is part of being Mexican.

Greeting strangers with warmth and sincerity is part of Mexican culture, especially in smaller communities and more rural areas, which Zihuatanejo still feels like in spite of having a population of over 80,000 in its main urban center. I've lived in smaller cities that felt much larger, but never a larger city that felt smaller.

This time of year when there are fewest visitors, locals see their friends and neighbors more frequently, whether simply walking around out'n'about or at local stores, restaurants and events. While it may take us a few moments to remember the names of folks we haven't seen much for months and sometimes years, we always remember the faces. It's extremely comforting to feel surrounded by our old friends and neighbors of so many years, as well as the generations of their families who retain the good moral values of their forebears. This is the true joy of being Zihuatanejense, though it's a trait that is common all up and down the Costa Grande where we often seem to be one big family.

Another mar de fondo effect is predicted to arrive to our coast this Friday with waved from 2 to 2.6 meters in height, not extremely large, though depending on the tides they could affect water taxi traffic at local piers.

A shame that we have all these beautiful beaches with hardly anyone on them today.

We got a nice little but too-brief rain this evening that really brought the temperature down. It's going to make for nice sleeping weather tonight. Probably even have to pull the bedsheet up over me.

Imagine your vacation in this beautiful 3-bedroom oceanfront villa called Casa Kokopeli. This tropical-style beachfront home with a pool offers plenty of privacy and relaxation. Located right on Troncones Beach within easy walking distance of the village as well as several convenience stores and numerous restaurants. It can easily accommodate up to 8 people comfortably.
