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.

White rock #zipolite 🪨🌅🦆🐦 Do you know what its white color is due to? It is due to the large amount of excrement left by the #birds that occupy this rock as a refuge. Among which we find the #diver duck, #frigatebirds, #pelicans and #seagulls. Minutes before sunset, the birds arrive at Roca Blanca and begin to fly around it until the sun sets, that is when the birds land in their nests and are ready to rest.

Roca blanca #zipolite 🪨🌅🦆🐦
Saben a qué se debe su blanca coloración?
Es debido a la gran cantidad de excremento que dejan las #aves que ocupan como refugio está roca. Dentro de las cuales encontramos al #pato buzo, #fragatas, #pelícanos y #gaviotas.
Minutos antes del atardecer las aves van llegando a Roca blanca y comienzan a volar al rededor de ella hasta que se mete el sol, es ahí cuando las aves aterrizan en sus nidos y están listas para descansar.
