Picturing Zihuatanejo Sailfest’s Eye-Catching Surrounds
The Zihuatanejo Sailfest occurs each February in the city of Zihuatanejo, Mexico. It is a time when cruisers come together and raise money in support of local children’s education. Latitude 38 reader and cruiser Kirk Wagner, of S/V Freedom Kirkland, sent us a few photos that he took while participating in the annual two-week-long festivities. Our intention is not to make everyone jealous, but the photos show some of the region’s beauty, and we just had to share.

That first pic looks like Pariso?
Some years ago (2012), when I visited Zihuatanejo for Sailfest – I stayed at Hotel Irma (up on a ridgeline, just above the beach – and on the southern end of the city). Recommended.
