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.

PUerto Escondido film trip




PUerto Escondido film trip


Just got back from a film trip with Alex Gray to Puerto Esdcondido yesterday. It was a 5 day trip that was my first big wave adventure and film trip with Mr. Turkeymelt. We got some big surf, drank some COCO Loco’s and ALex was a classic dude to hang with, kinda like a little kid in a candy store all the time. Huntington Beaches Timmy Reyes also met us down there and Alex got me to do a new Turkeymelt episode that should be out in a few weeks, Ill keep you posted photos soon to come as well. THis is a video from a previous trip down there for Alex, of course ours is gonna be way sicker!!
HEre is another pretty sick collage of crazy barrels as well.
