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.

Heard from a friend in Zipolite that things have quieted right down and the tourist season is basically over.  Now is when it gets pretty darn hot and humid and the waves are big. It's also a quiet time so if you wanted to get away for some peace and quiet and really get to know the locals this is a perfect time.

I wanted to share this because the more people understand about Zipolite's beach and waves the safer everyone will be. Check out this video and if you want to learn more about Zipolite please visit our blog Zipolita'z y Angelita'z Adventurez in Mexico -http://adventurezinmexico.blogspot.ca
