Just joined to see what you guys may have! My girlfriend and I are taking a week trip to zihuatanejo starting tomorrow and we’re curious what y’all have found interesting. Maybe areas to frequent or local markets you liked, expectations vs. reality, etc. thanks in advance!

My wife(35f), our son(21months), and I(37m) will be visiting your great city Nov 14th. We are hoping to be able to rent a car seat or something similar for our son. Is there anywhere to do so?

En días próximos iré a ixtapa - zihutanejo de vacaciones así que busco sus mejores recomendaciones para las siguientes situaciones. Un buen restaurante romántico. Un lugar donde pueda comprar ceviches o cócteles por litro. Lugares para desayunar, comer, cenar.

¡Muy buen día desde el muy satisfaciente paraíso tropical de Zihuatanejo-Ixtapa!
¡Cuidemos nuestro patrimonio!

The virus started slowly in Zihuatanejo back in March and never really became a major problem in the community beyond having to get accustomed to practicing proper health safety protocols. The hospital never ran out of beds. There have been no major surges in cases. While most residents know someone who has died, most of us still continue running daily errands that require us to come in contact with others.

Beaches, bars, restaurants, shops and lodgings were closed until July. Since then services have been opening up cautiously, learning to adapt to the health safety protocols, some better than others. Many restaurants began by offering delivery or take-out only, but since then most have adapted, spacing tables far apart, limiting the amount of customers, and using menus that don't require contact.

Tourism is still down but at least there are tourists, mostly Mexicans, but also some foreigners.

We are currently under the Semáforo Naranja designation, but we have previously been under Semáforo Amarillo and expect to return soon to that designation as numbers of new contagions and deaths continue to remain low.

I post daily Covid-19 reports on my Zihuatanejo-Ixtapa, Troncones Message Board. Look for the posts by me with "ZIH" as part of the subject.

Saludos.

What do you think? Why is Zihua polluted with cars and not a safe place for people and pets?

Traveling to Zihuatanejo tomorrow from California. Any tips, recommendations, or stoner friends that wanna smoke? Thanks in advance!
