Greetings to our 8,172 subscribers,  

RiverSayulita school students are enjoying the last days of summer vacation as kids prepare to begin a new school year next week. For the rest of us who do not attend school, Sayulita residents are still feeling the summer heat and even enjoying some summer time vacations. The rains continue in Sayulita and now the river flows steadily through town. Sayulita residents have taken precautions this year to avoid flooding due to the heavy rains and so far the pleasant summer showers have just been enough to turn our hillsides green, and cool down the temperatures.
 
If you see garbage near the river bed, be sure to make the effort to pick it up as this time of year garbage and debris is washed into our ocean. As a community, we need to all work together to help keep our swimming waters clean this rainy season as more and more tourists arrive to enjoy summer in Sayulita. The above photo was taken today of the flowing river and pedestrian bridge.

Thank you to our readers and contributors of El Sayulero.

Saludos a nuestros 8,172 lectores  
 

Los alumnos de Sayulita estan disfrutando los ultimos dias de sus vacaciones de verano mientras preparan para empezar otro ano escolar esta semana que viene. Para nosotros que no estudiamos, seguimos disfrutnado el calor de verano e incluso unas vacaciones de verano. Las lluvias continuan en Sayulita y ahora el rio fluye constantamente. Los residentes de Sayulita han tomando precausiones este ano para evitar inundaciones pero hasta la fecha las lluvias han sido agradables convertiendo las colinas en un color verde muy hermoso y ayudan a bajar las temperaturas.

 
Si ves basura por el borde del rio, recogela. Durante esta epoca del ano mucha basura se le lleva el rio al oceano. Como comunidad, necesitamos trabajar en equipo para ayudar a mantener nuestras aguas donde nadamos limpias ya que mas y mas turistas llegan a disfrutar verano en Sayulita. La foto arriba se tomo hoy del rio que fluye y el puente peotanal.

Letter to the Editor:
The Ongoing Care of Sayulita 

 

We have been visiting Sayulita for the last 5 years, always in the February to March time. We love the people, the food, the ambiance and of course the climate. I enjoy reading the articles in the newsletter and am moved by the efforts being made by the local residents to clean the river bed, and others who care about how Sayulita develops itself as a community. These issues are really important and ones that I make an effort to support in the community I live in, Victoria, BC, Canada. Sayulita is a gem for us, and I will do whatever I can to support it staying this way.

Sayulita Spanish Guide
 By Riley Hunter

 

Sayulita is a tourist destination. That means that the local population has adopted English as a second language to integrate and adapt to the influx of foreigners that come to surf their wavesfish their fish, stay in all the "new" vacation rentals, eat at Sayulita's metropolitan restaurants, and shop all the worldly bohemian boutiques and galleries. But, that doesn't mean we can't be responsible and respectable travelers and learn a thing or two! El Sayulero has put together a little Sayulita-Style Spanish guide for you, to help with getting around town. Read more

 

Sayulita es un destino turistico. Eso significa que la poblacion local ha adoptado al idioma ingles para integrar y adaptar al flujo de extranjeros que llegan a surfear las olas, pescar en su mar y hospedarse en las nuevas rentas de vacaciones, comer en los restaurantes de Sayulita e ir de compras en los boutiques y galerias. Pero eso no significa que no podemos ser viajeros responsables y respetuosos y aprender unas palabras. El Sayulero ha creado esta guia al estilo Sayulita para ayudarte durante tu visita a Sayulita. Leer mas

Pueblo Magico: Bank Matters

 By Eric Rudd

If you are resident or a short-term visitor, money matters.  Therefore, it is helpful to become familiar with banks and ATMs. For almost any visitor, a debit card from a safe ATM gets you the best rate.  There are now several ATMs in Sayulita and they seem safe, although for conservatives out there, ATMs in front of the banks or at Mega or Walmart always seem a better choice (there are 5 banks just at the Mega shopping center and more at Walmart and in Bucerias); since we go often enough to shop, that's convenient for us.  Nevertheless, ATMs give you the best rate to convert dollars into pesos. Read more

 

Si usted es residente o un visitante a corto plazo, asuntos de dinero. Por lo tanto, es �til para familiarizarse con los bancos y cajeros autom�ticos.

Para casi cualquier visitante, una tarjeta de d�bito de un cajero autom�tico de seguro te lleva la mejor tarifa. En la actualidad hay varios cajeros autom�ticos en Sayulita y parece seguro, aunque para los conservadores por ah�, delante de los cajeros autom�ticos de los bancos o en Mega o Walmart siempre parece una mejor opci�n (hay 5 bancos justo en el centro comercial Mega y m�s en Walmart y en Bucerias), ya que vamos bastante a menudo a la tienda, que es conveniente para nosotros. Sin embargo, los cajeros autom�ticos le dar� la mejor tarifa para convertir los d�lares a pesos. Leer mas
