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.

  2. Un Secreto

    Run by Julien from Un Sueño, Un Secreto serves up sabores del Pacífico with a touch of French flair. The short but sweet seafood-based menu runs from a delicious foil-wrapped fish with mint to vegetable skewers with aioli, and lemon pie to round things off. Excellent breakfasts, licuados, light lunches and coffee too.

  3. El Sueño de Freda

    Freda’s tiny kitchen serves brightly colored fruit plates and light breakfast, lunch and evening meals. The porch is perched along the main drag, opposite the ocean, just perfect for people-watching and catching a nice breeze.

  4. La Casa Mágica

    A favorite with San Agustinillo’s amiable little bunch of expats, this welcoming Irish-run bar offers pool, darts, drinks and light food, a couple of hundred meters up the hill opposite Hotel Malex.
