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.

A Tradition of Tastes – Oaxaca Prepares for National Culinary Festival, El Saber del Sabor



From September 1-11,  2011, Oaxaca will celebrate its national culinary festival, ‘El Saber del Sabor’ – A Tradition of Tastes.
“The culinary festival El Saber del Sabor: Más Allá del Mito de los Siete Moles (A Tradition of Tastes: Beyond the Myth of the Seven Moles) is a space for creation, fun and peace. Since its founding in 2009, it has become the marquee event showcasing our national cuisine.”
“The first two weeks of September have been fashioned into a call to reconsider our national holidays through the flavors of Oaxaca. Mexican identity becomes food and food becomes a new way of understanding and expressing the way of life in Mexico.”
