Playa Zipolite. Welcome To The Beach Of The Dead!: 01/31/13

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.

              Come to La Loma Linda, Return to Yourself!

Our learning and vacation paradise offers the body, mind and soul a wonderful place to rest, refresh, relax, explore and learn. La Loma Linda consists of 10 beautiful cabanas or rooms of varying size overlooking the Pacific Ocean and a retreat center with teaching space, kitchen and lounge area, located over a large area on a hill tucked away in the middle of the charming beach village of Zipolite beach. La Loma Linda is the perfect place for family reunions and all kinds of celebrations.
Stay in one of our beautiful luxurious yet all naturally built bungalows, listen to the soothing rhythm of the waves and don’t miss the breathtaking sunsets from your gently swaying hammock. Plunge into the Pacific ocean and play in the waves or take a long stroll on the beach. Enjoy the sight of pelicans sailing over La Loma Linda, observe dolphins and stingrays jumping out of the water and possibly watch whales swim by.
Combine your carefree beach vacation with Yoga classes, 5-day Yoga-Intensives or sessions in the Feldenkrais Method®. Or treat yourself to a massage,acupuncture, craneo-sacro sessions or a Temascal (sweat lodge).
Instructors can also rent our center for their own retreats, classes and workshops.
People staying with us develop a new sense of time and live by the rise and set of the sun, and many decide to extend their stay....
