Playa Zipolite. Welcome To The Beach Of The Dead!: Zipolite 2021 - Second home 444 views • Jan 3, 2022 • I know this place since 20 years and I still love it because it feels like home. But Zipolite is in danger of becoming a second Tulum. It is not yet, but the threat is undeniable and we have to save this very unique place by recognizing that a place like this - so natural and healthy - needs to be protected. So if you consider to go there, do it with respect for the people, culture and the vibe there. And if you want to party like in Tulum or Cancun... go there and don't come here!

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.
