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.

San Agustinillo is best reached by flying to Huatulco (40km away) or Puerto Escondido (60 km away).
Flights from Canada or the USA are usually routed through Mexico City or Houston, Texas.
Three domestic carriers run daily flights from Mexico City to Huatulco.
Once at Huatulco you have 2 options for a taxi.
The airport taxi is more expensive than taking a local taxi.
 These are easily available is you walk out of the airport (300 meters) to the main road.
The picturesque ride to San Agustinillo is around 45 mins.
