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.

Tips for Traveling Safely this Summer

by paradise

Summer is the time for travel. It's the time of year where it's warm everywhere, opening the doors to many possibilities for destinations. Wherever you plan to go this summer, make sure that you do so safely. To help make sure that you and your loved ones have a good time with minimal bumps in the road, you can follow these tips to stay prepared.

Have Backup Funding Just in Case

Depending on where you are traveling for the summer, you want to make sure that you have a secondary resource of money. You should avoid carrying all of your cash and credit cards on you when you're out enjoying the sights. Robberies do happen and if it happens to you, then you want to have a backup credit card or a stash of cash to get you back home. You also want to make sure that if you have a credit card or bank card as a backup that will work in the country you're in.

Bring Emergency Numbers with You

There are a variety of things that can happen while you're on your summer trip. Cars and credit cards can be stolen, people become ill and arrests could take place. Knowing who to call when these things occur is important to resolving them. So make sure to bring numbers for your auto insurance company, health insurance company and important emergency contacts, such as family members.

Make Sure You Have Auto Insurance Coverage

Whether you're driving your own vehicle or renting a car from a company like Fox Rent a Car, you want to ensure that you have proper auto insurance coverage. Things you want to have included are vandalism, theft, breakdowns and collisions. If you end up getting into an accident without the proper coverage, while driving in a foreign country, you could end up behind bars and paying hefty fines.

If you are planning to rent a car at your summer destination, check the discounts available for Fox Rent a Car. You can also find deals for thousands of other stores at Groupon Coupons.
