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.

〔即時新聞/綜合報導〕墨西哥希伯萊特(Zipolite)是當地第一個,也是唯一的合法裸體海灘,每年都會舉辦希伯萊特天體節(Festival Nudista Zipolite)。儘管今年疫情嚴重,當地政府仍然同意在1月29日到2月1日舉辦天體節。

綜合外媒報導,到目前為止,墨西哥已有超過148萬例武漢肺炎(新型冠狀病毒病,COVID-19)病例,以及超過13萬例與武肺相關的死亡案例。主辦單位墨西哥天體聯盟(FederaciónNudista deMéxico)卻依然照歷年慣例,在今年1月29日至2月1日舉行天體節。

報導指出,自2016年以來,墨西哥南部海岸的希伯萊特,在每年2月的第一個週末,都會舉辦希伯萊特天體節,這項活動的主旨是「將裸體主義視為人們不可或缺的自然組成一部分,而不是性的特徵。」

據報導,當地的衛生秘書處已確認可以舉行此活動,他們也認為,這項活動也可以彌補當地的經濟。不過在防疫上仍有相關措施,2021年希伯萊特天體節的宣傳文案上寫到,如果您預訂了機票和飯店,請記得帶上口罩和消毒用品,「但如果尚未預訂,請您待在家裡。」

Fire consumes 36 businesses in Tulum, 1,000 people evacuated Investigators suspect a discarded cigarette or a short circuit caused the blaze

Fire consumes 36 businesses in Tulum, 1,000 people evacuated

Investigators suspect a discarded cigarette or a short circuit caused the blaze

A fire in Tulum’s hotel zone Wednesday night destroyed several businesses and prompted emergency personnel to evacuate around 1,000 people.

There were no casualties, Tulum Civil Protection director Gilberto Gómez Mora said, but the fire, which is believed to have begun shortly before 10 p.m. and was already raging out of control by the time emergency personnel arrived at 10:06, stripped 36 business owners of most or all of their possessions.

“It was enormous. The losses were in the millions [of pesos],” he said. “Smothering the fire and avoiding that it spread was a titanic job. We didn’t have any loss of life, but there were certainly owners of businesses in shock, watching their entire life savings being consumed.”

No hotels in the area were damaged, he said.

According to Gómez, the fire currently appears to have one of two possible origins: either a discarded lit cigarette at a party in the area or a short-circuit of Christmas lights that were hanging behind a clothing shop in the plaza.

“We are doing an analysis,” Gomez said. “We detected Christmas lights. Some of them could have caused the short circuit and ignited a spark that spread throughout the businesses, which were all made with materials from the region.”

Gomez was referring to the fact that many of the shops, in accordance with regional tradition, use palalpa-style thatching on their roofs, which may explain how the fire spread.

Regarding the party, Gomez said that a cleaning woman for the plaza told Civil Protection about having seen a party in the area where candles had been lit and people were smoking.

“We found spent fire extinguishers. Some lit cigarette butt could have been the origin [of the fire],” Gómez explained.

The fire also damaged 10 living quarters, officials said.

Evacuations were hampered by the sheer number of people Civil Protection was trying to move out of the area.

Firefighters managed to put out the fire around 1:00 a.m. with request assistance from nearby towns.
