<div>Batimetry Studies to Safeguard an Iconic Wave
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Zicatela is not just a wave.
</div>
<div>It is a living ecosystem, a cultural symbol, and one of the most powerful and iconic surf breaks in the world.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>For years, the natural dynamics of Zicatela were affected by a breakwater built in the main bay of Puerto Escondido. In 2024, thanks to the force of nature and the unity of the local community, the breakwater was removed. The waves began to breathe again.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>This campaign represents the next critical step.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Why Batymetry Studies Matter
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>To protect Zicatela long-term, we need science.
</div>
<div>Batymetry studies allow us to understand:
</div>
<div>•	The shape and movement of the seafloor
</div>
<div>•	Coastal currents and sediment transport
</div>
<div>•	How human interventions can impact wave quality and coastal balance
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>With this data, we can work alongside the government, scientists, and the local community to ensure that future projects, infrastructure, or coastal management plans do not harm the Zicatela wave again.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>This is essential for responsible decision-making and sustainable coastal protection.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Our Goal
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We are raising $200,000 MXN (approximately $12,000 USD) to fund professional batymetry studies in Zicatela.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>How Your Donation Will Be Used
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>All funds will be used directly for:
</div>
<div>•	Specialized oceanographic and batymetry surveys
</div>
<div>•	Data analysis and technical reporting
</div>
<div>•	Tools needed to understand coastal dynamics and wave formation
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Every donation —big or small— helps build the scientific foundation needed to protect this wave forever.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>A Shared Responsibility
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Zicatela is part of the next World Surfing Reserve.
</div>
<div>Protecting it is a shared responsibility among surfers, ocean lovers, scientists, and communities around the world.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>If you’ve ever surfed Zicatela, dreamed of surfing it, or believe in protecting waves through science and community action, this is your chance to help.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Join Us
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>This is the second phase of Salvemos Zicatela — moving from action to knowledge, from resistance to long-term protection.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Donate. Share. Be part of Zicatela’s future.

<div>Estudios de batimetría para cuidar una ola icónica
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Zicatela no es solo una ola.
</div>
<div>Es un ecosistema vivo, un símbolo cultural y una de las olas más poderosas e icónicas del mundo.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Durante años, la dinámica natural de Zicatela se vio afectada por una escollera construida en la Bahía Principal de Puerto Escondido. En 2024, gracias a la fuerza de la naturaleza y a la unión de la comunidad, esta escollera fue retirada. Las olas comenzaron a respirar de nuevo.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Esta campaña representa el siguiente paso fundamental.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div> ¿Por qué son importantes los estudios de batimetría?
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Para proteger Zicatela a largo plazo, necesitamos ciencia.
</div>
<div>Los estudios de batimetría nos permiten conocer:
</div>
<div>	•	La forma y el comportamiento del fondo marino
</div>
<div>	•	Las corrientes costeras y el movimiento de sedimentos
</div>
<div>	•	Cómo las intervenciones humanas pueden afectar la calidad de la ola y el equilibrio costero
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Con esta información podremos trabajar de la mano con el gobierno, especialistas y la comunidad, para asegurar que cualquier proyecto futuro, obra o plan de manejo costero no vuelva a afectar la ola de Zicatela.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Estos estudios son clave para tomar decisiones responsables y sostenibles.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div> Nuestro objetivo
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Recaudar $200,000 MXN (aproximadamente $12,000 USD) para realizar estudios profesionales de batimetría en Zicatela.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div> ¿En qué se usará tu donación?
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Todos los donativos serán destinados directamente a:
</div>
<div>	•	Levantamientos batimétricos y estudios oceanográficos especializados
</div>
<div>	•	Análisis de datos y elaboración de informes técnicos
</div>
<div>	•	Herramientas necesarias para entender la dinámica costera y la formación de la ola
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Cada donación —pequeña o grande— contribuye a construir la base científica necesaria para proteger Zicatela para siempre.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div> Una responsabilidad compartida
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Zicatela es parte de la próxima Reserva Mundial de Surf.
</div>
<div>Cuidarla es una responsabilidad compartida entre surfistas, científicos, comunidades locales y amantes del mar en todo el mundo.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Si alguna vez surfeaste Zicatela, sueñas con hacerlo, o crees en la protección de las olas a través de la ciencia y la organización comunitaria, este es tu momento de ayudar.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div> Súmate
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Esta es la segunda etapa de Salvemos Zicatela: pasar de la acción a la prevención, del esfuerzo comunitario al conocimiento científico.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Dona. Comparte. Sé parte del futuro de Zicatela.
</div>
