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.

Beautiful Beaches of Huatulco - La Entrega

Beautiful Beaches of Huatulco - La Entrega


Playa La Entrega is a small, but beautiful beach located relatively
close to the lighthouse.  If you are looking for easy access and full
services, you have come to the right place.

What you will find here are several palapa restaurants lining the
beach...this is great if you don't want to pack a lunch and need to
rent some snorkel gear.  This is after all, one of the better spots
in Huatulco to snorkel.  And while you are in the water enjoying
all of those tropical fish, just around the corner is tiny Playa
Cholita.  This is a great spot to stop if you are getting a
little tired and want a bit more privacy.  At times, La Entrega
can be filled with sun loving tourists due to the easy access
and tour buses who stop here.  Oh, you may want to avoid
Sunday's as this is the busiest beach day of the week...there
are 35 other beaches here to enjoy!
