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.

Lonely Planet review

This Italian-run joint is on a friendly, personal scale and has the most character among the Roca Blanca beachfront places. The very clean wood-and-palm rooms have good beds, four-poster mosquito nets, fans, safes, ingenious water-saving showers and their own sandy little hammock areas. Best are the two larger, more expensive, beach-facing rooms.
There's a good cafe/restaurant (mains M$70 to M$140) too, with enticing seafood creations, wood-oven pizzas and two cocktails for M$50 in the evenings.
Our independent authors have visited Posada Mexico and selected this as one of our recommended hotels in Zipolite.
