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.

SURFING SAN AGUSTINILLO


SURFING SAN AGUSTINILLO

SURFING is sensational on the beaches of San Agustinillo- and you don’t need to bring your board rentals are easy-for all levels of expertise and if you are just starting out a lesson from San Agustinillo resident David-a very qualified instructor with years of experience on the water is a must.
David has a great following from his COCO LOCO SURF CLUB-it’s a recommended way to get familiar with the waves-especially if you are new to the sport.  You need to know there is a strong rip tide at times, and respect the power of the ocean.
During High Season- the Surf School has a palapa- right on the East side of the main beach-in the Low Season- head over to Mexico Lindo Y Que Rico on the beach where the boards are rented daily-Boogie Boarding- is just as much fun-stick to the Main Bay-where the breaks are protected-really great fun for all ages- and the waves almost guarantee a good ride every day of your vacation.
