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.

📣 CIVIL PROTECTION POCHUTLA INFORMATION Unusual currents continue without major warning. The best way to avoid accidents is to prevent. Civil Protection Pochutla recommends citizens to consider the following recommendations: ☑️ Follow the recommendations of security personnel. ☑️ Avoid swimming large distances unsupervised. ☑️ Don't swim after eating. ☑️ If you have ingested alcohol, do not enter the sea. ☑️ If the edge to land from the beach is very pending, avoid being introduced into the sea and bathing during high tides, and even more so, if there are strong waves. If it's dragged by some hangover or current: ☑️ Keep calm, don't fight the current. ☑️ Swim along the stream and parallel to the coast, then at a 45-degree angle back to shore. ☑️ If you can't escape it, float or advance in calm water. Hangover currents fade away with time. If you see someone trapped in a hangover, DO NOT try to rescue them on your own, instead: ☑️ Look for a lifeguard or call 911. ☑️ Ask for help so that you can receive instructions and advice. ☑️ If possible, launch a life saver or floating device. Remember prevention is everyone's job.

☑️ Seguir las recomendaciones del personal de seguridad.
☑️ Evite nadar grandes distancias sin supervisión.
☑️ No nade después de comer.
☑️ Si ha ingerido alcohol, no ingrese al mar.

☑️ Mantenga la calma, no luche contra la corriente.
☑️ Nade al lado de la corriente y paralelo a la costa, a continuación, en un ángulo de 45 grados de vuelta a la orilla.

☑️ Si es posible, lance un salvavidas o dispositivo de flotación.
Recuerda que la prevención es trabajo de todos.
