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.

Huatulco Honey Moon


It was on May, 2012. Ana María, my wife, and I went to Oaxaca for the wedding of our friends Jodi and Luis. The wedding ceremony was beautiful, the party was exquisite. From there we started our honey moon taking a 8-hour bus ride from Oaxaca City to Huatulco. We passed by Salina Cruz, one of the most important commercial ports in Mexico. If we connect Salina Cruz through the Istmo with the Mexican Gulf, we could be more competitive vis-à-vis the Panama Canal.  Anyways, we went to a lighthouse in Huatulco and look what we saw: a breathtaking, marvelous sunset.
