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.

Viva Veracruz & Viva Puerto Escondido, Time to Pay Up

Time to Pay Up

Posted on 
Following along lately? Then you know we are in full Home Improvement mode here at Casa La Punta Es! Now we need your help.
We are tile flooring fans – even more so than wood flooring (the defacto U.S. standard). This is a good thing when living in Mexico – Mexico is all about TILE.
Locally here in Puerto Escondido there are a half dozen or more tile vendors and many installers. Our favorite, while somewhat frustrating occasionally, is Zetuna.
Lorena is our GO TO Salesperson – very knowledgeable 

We have some tile options for the master bedroom. We want your opinion on the best of a few choices we have narrowed things down to. Please don’t be shy – help us out here.
We will call this Sample 1:
We call this Sample 2:
Sample 3:
Please concentrate on the main tile(s). The rose border tile and the small designer trim does not count – just looking for your choice of best tile.
Please place your votes in the comment section. We need your help on this.
We have our work cutout for us – literally – Stay Tiled and Stay Tuned!
