On lookers watch baby turtles being released in Sayulita
Onlookers watch as baby turtles are released to sea in Sayulita 
 It is turtle season in Sayulita. Summer is the time of year when the turtles come out of the water to lay their eggs on our main beach and this year volunteers have been working throughout the nights to protect the turtle eggs and ensure these little creatures get a good head start in their survival. The Campamento Tortuguero asking for more volunteers to help during the night and roam the beaches in search of turtle eggs which become endangered by predators. I had the opportunity to work with this group of dedicated volunteers last week and their efforts are paying off. The nursery is located beside Terrazola restaurant in front of Las Gemelas complex. For more information on the organization read our previous article "Campamento Tortuguero: Protecting Sayulita's Baby Turtles". There are turtle releases every so often in Sayulita at sunset (pictured above) and everyone is welcome to come see the turtles make their way to sea.

Es temporada de tortugas en Sayulita. El verano es la �poca del a�o cuando las tortugas salen del agua para poner sus huevos en nuestra playa principal y este a�o los voluntarios han estado trabajando durante las noches para proteger los huevos de tortugas y asegurar que estas peque�as criaturas obtienen una buena ventaja en la supervivencia . El Campamento Tortuguero esta pidiendo m�s voluntarios para ayudar durante la noche y vagar por las playas en busca de huevos de tortuga que se convierten en peligro por los depredadores. Tuve la oportunidad de trabajar con este grupo de voluntarios dedicados la semana pasada y sus esfuerzos est�n dando sus frutos. El vivero se encuentra junto al restaurante Terrazola frente al complejo Las Gemelas. Para obtener m�s informaci�n sobre la organizaci�n, lea nuestro art�culo anterior "Campamento Tortuguero: Protección de las Tortugas de Sayulita". Hay liberaci�n de tortugas cada cierto tiempo en Sayulita al atardecer (en la foto) y todo el mundo es bienvenido a ver las tortugas se dirigen al mar. 

 

El Sayulero da la bienvenida a Derrick Lundy, dueno de Om Yoga studio en Sayulita y photogrpher apasionado que se aporta sus fotograf�as en "Foto de la Semana" de El Sayulero. Usted puede ver sus im�genes fotogr�ficas en nuestras pr�ximas ediciones de El Sayulero. Esta semana le aporta su primera imagen de un bailarin de telas colgado de las palmas en el lado norte de la playa de Sayulita. Ver Foto la semana a continuacion.

 

Disfrute de nuestros art�culos a continuaci�n incluye los �ltimos planes para trasladar nuestro puente peatonal met�lico para el barrio Tamarindos, una reciente visita del Seguro Popular de Sayulita y divertido deporte de Sayulita de Stand Up Paddleboarding.

Sayulita Pedestrian Bridge Relocating to Tamarindos Neighborhood

 By Lindsay Walter

 
Municipal president Rafael Cervantes authorized the relocation of Sayulita's metal pedestrian bridge from the downtown location at Calle Pelicanos adjacent to the vehicular bridge, to the residential Tamarindos neighborhood after recognizing a public need for a footbridge in this area brought to the president's attention by Sayulita's trustee Armando Campos Salgado.  After holding a meeting and realizing that many mothers took their children to and from school in the Tamarindos neighborhood it was decided that the current location of Sayulita's only pedestrian bridge was to be moved. Read more

Despues de una junta se dieron cuenta que muchas mamas llevan sus hijos a las escuelas desde el Tamarindo y decidieron mover el puente.  Leer mas

Letter to the Editor:

 

I love my El Sayulero and usually try to forego the English portion and read it in Spanish.  I was really happy to see the Sayulita-Style Spanish Guide appear!  I'm trying to learn the language and on my three visits there I made every attempt to speak what little Spanish I could.  I purposely asked most employees if I could practice with them when ordering in a restaurant, etc. and everyone was really happy to accommodate me!  CVIS offers classes, private and group, in Spanish, and I took advantage of that, too.  I would never travel to another country and expect to be spoken to in my native language.  It's disrespectful and besides, we all have a good laugh about my attempts!

 

- Cherianne Pollastrini

 

Me encanta leer El Sayulero y normalmente trato de leer la parte en espanol. Me alegro ver la guia de espanol al estilo Sayulita en El Sayulero. Estoy aprendiendo el idioma y durante mis tres visitas alla hice esfuerzo para hablar espanol. Pregunte a los empleados en los restaurantes si podria practicar con ellos mi espanol y estaban felices de ayudarme. CVIS ofrece clases privadas y en grupos en espanol y aproveche de esas clases tambien. Nuncia viajaria a un pais y esperar que me hablen en mi idioma, es falta de respeto, ademas nos reimos de mis intentos.

We always love it when things are going on in the plaza's gazebo.

SayulitaLife.com Welcomes 
National Car Rental
 By Riley Hunter

 

National Car Rental is a new option for car rentals here in Sayulita. This is great news since the company continues with its tradition of offering a plan in which the customer can rent a car in one location and leave it at another one. We say continue with their tradition, because they were the first company that offered this option in 1954. That means, if you are traveling to Sayulita and arriving at the Puerto Vallarta airport, you can just dive the car on over and leave it here with them and then discuss all your other transportation options for your ride back.  Read more

Eso significa si viajas a Sayulita y llegas al aeropuerto de Vallarta, puedes manejar el carro hasta alla y dejarlo en el aeropuerto y puedes hablar sobre otras necesidades de transportacion para regresar a Sayulita.  Leer mas

Hola from sweet hot Sayulita. What has been happening with Grupo Pro Sayulita since we last updated on El Sayulero?

I hope to be able to update more often and aspire to his level of timeliness. Read more
