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.

Step back into the Mexico of the ‘70s and 80’s with a visit to the quaint community of Zipolite. Although you’ll have all the comforts of home in this beautiful condo on the waterfront, you’ll experience the ambience of rural Mexican life just a half hours drive away from the international airport in Huatulco.


Feel the white sand between your toes as you walk the 2 km beach. Watch fishermen cast out their nets and buy fish that are still wriggling on the beach before you. See flocks of pelicans circling in feeding patterns just meters from shore. Stop anywhere along the beach for a cold drink or cervesa and order up the meal of the day. Be lulled by the sound of the constant ebb and flow of the surf and the calling of the seabirds.


This condo is airconditioned with units in the living room, and bedrooms but with a constant temperature of around 30 C during the day and 20 C at night, it is certainly not a necessity. Each room has a fan, and there is a constant breeze coming through the unit from the ocean.


The unit is bright and cheery, with a fully equipped kitchen (refrigerator, stove, blender, toaster oven, pots, pans, and utensils) for those who plan on preparing their own meals. There are two bedrooms, one with a queen-sized bed, and one with a king-sized bed. There is a safe in your room and lots of closet space for your clothing. The sofa in the living room is comfortable and wide, and can be utilized for sleeping extra people if necessary.


You have a spacious balcony with a view of the sunrise in the morning, and the sunset in the evening. Picture yourself seated in a bar stool and eating your meals with a backdrop of a sandy beach and the Pacific Ocean.


If you’re feeling hot after a walk on the beach, play in the ocean waves, or jump into the infinity pool for a refreshing swim. You can either tan on the beach or lay next to the pool. The beach in Zipolite is one of the few in Mexico where clothing is optional.


There are more than 40 restaurants in the community that serve a wide variety of foods from high cuisine to burgers. Most restaurants are traditional Mexican but there are lots of Italian restaurants and one with Indian cuisine. The seafood is great and you can find lots of places that serve burgers, fries, and pizza. The nightlife is good with a disco and bars that are open till the wee hours. Crafters line the street in the evenings, with everything from handmade clothing to jewellery for sale.


You can often see whales passing from the balcony, but there are whale watching tours for those who like the close-up view. There are also white water rafting tours, snorkelling tours, tours into the mountains for viewing coffee plantation and high mountain waterfalls. Ziploite is a bird watcher’s paradise. The fishing is fantastic, and one can get guides at either Peurto Angel (2 kms away) or San Agustinillo (2 km in the other direction). The largest turtle sanctuary and museum in Mexico is in Mazunte (3 km from Zipolite), and there is an alligator reserve in Ventanilla (8-10 km to the west). Taxi service is good and the fairs are very reasonable.
