You read The Tulum Times for free. Advertising pays part of the cost. Readers pay the rest.

One taco a month is nothing on your side. On ours, it is the difference between chasing a story and finishing it: paying a reporter for the week a permit file actually takes, staying on beach access and sargassum after the news cycle moves on, and turning down coverage we should never be selling.

A single donation helps once. A monthly one is what we can plan around.

Set an amount you would not miss, and let it repeat.
