A little about Playa Zipolite, The Beach of the Dead . . .

Playa Zipolite, Oaxaca, Southern Mexico, on the Pacific Ocean. A little bit about my favorite little get-away on this small world of ours.

Zipolite, a sweaty 30-minute walk west from Puerto Angel, brings you to Playa Zipolite and another world. The feeling here is 1970's - Led Zep, Marley, and scruffy gringos.

A long, long time ago, Zipolite beach was usually visited by the Zapotecans...who made it a magical place. They came to visit Zipolite to meditate, or just to rest.

Recently, this beach has begun to receive day-trippers from Puerto Angel and Puerto Escondido, giving it a more TOURISTY feel than before.

Most people come here for the novelty of the nude beach, yoga, turtles, seafood, surf, meditation, vegetarians, discos, party, to get burnt by the sun, or to see how long they can stretch their skinny budget.

I post WWW Oaxaca, Mexico, Zipolite and areas nearby information. Also general budget, backpacker, surfer, off the beaten path, Mexico and beyond, information.

REMEMBER: Everyone is welcome at Zipolite.

Eruptions resume at Volcano of Fire

Colima Volcano sends smoke and ash three kilometers into the sky

  124  1
There have been more eruptions at the Colima Volcano this week, sending ash and smoke more than three kilometers into the air.
Also known as the Volcano of Fire, it has been active since July 9, when ash falls forced the evacuation of several communities a few days later.

It was previously active in January and February.
Various eruptions took place yesterday and Thursday.
A state of emergency was declared last month and nearly 700 people were evacuated in five municipalities in the states of Colima and Jalisco.
