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.

Exhaust guide 2011

San Agustinillo, Oaxaca


  • (Chilango Magazine.).

When we believed to have lived fully the beaches of Oaxaca, we realized that we had missed a special place located between Mazunte and Zipolite. San Agustinillo is a beach near mile with warm water and open water areas.
The townspeople decided to keep it, so that will not fit here fieston night or other motorized vehicles and the different activities that damage ecosystems. This mentality has led to important programs such as the protection of the turtle. The current does not preclude environmental activities such as diving, surfing or fishing, but the real gem of San Agustinillo is tranquility, without overcrowding or a consumer culture. 
The recommendation is to stay by the beach.
Do not miss
Traditionally watch the sunset from Punta Cometa, a sacred hill located in Mazunte, about 15 minutes. The geographical point farther south.
