Playa Zipolite. Welcome To The Beach Of The Dead!: THE ALCHEMIST POSADA IN ZIPOLITE

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.

THE ALCHEMIST POSADA IN ZIPOLITE

December 2, 2014

On our last visit to Mazunte , Oaxaca, we decided to visit Zipolite. It was a rainy day so we pretty much went there to eat the most recommended place in town: the inn The Alchemist.

The Alchemist's hotel but we just met the restaurant. Located at the opposite end of the nudist beach Love, is a perfect place to eat calmly or take shots oceanfront very quiet corner.

If there is one thing that never fails on the beaches of Oaxaca is to always eat well. Whether in simple or more elaborate Fondita sites Alchemist is no exception.

We ordered chicken fajitas with vegetables and tuna with balsamic (for proteins) and we left room for dessert: a chocolate cupcake that had face being baked in a can and it was delicious, I esponjosito outside and filled with chocolate liquid and warm.
