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.

New Exciting Destination - Huatulco, Mexico

New Exciting Destination - Huatulco, Mexico

We just returned from a fantastic travel agent trip to Huatulco, Mexico. It is located on the southern side of Mexico. The views are unbelievable as the small town is located between the Sierra Madre mountains and Pacific ocean. Most resorts are built into the mountains so you have views of both. There are several bays that include beaches surrounded by cliffs and rocks. I found the backdrop to be very picturesque and wonderful for weddings. The sand is not the white Caribbean sand but still offers snorkeling and sea turtle hatchings during specific seasons. This small town is considered sub-tropical because it is wet and green during the summer months. In contrast, the winters are dry and less humid. If you want to see a new and unique destination, this may be the place for you. Biodiversity and being "green" is extremely important to this area of the country. They value safety and security to the highest level. Apple Vacations will be offering non-stop charter service for next year. Call for more information and pricing. Soon we will be posting pictures on Facebook, please visit our page at Classic Travel and Cruises.
