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.

Do you know the #chepil flower? They are hummingbirds!

¿Conoces la flor de #chepil? ¡son colibríes!
Aquí en #Oaxaca el chepil es una planta muy rica que se prepara de diferentes maneras y en sus flores amarillas se encuentra esta belleza. En una caminata a la montaña, me encontré una frondosa planta y quise tomarme fotos para compartirles un poco de las ideas que me encuentro en mi búsqueda. La naturaleza es mi única teoría del arte y sumergirme en ella apreciando cada cosa a detalle me despierta mil ideas. Si tienes una plantita de estas o alguna otra bella en tu jardín, compártela conmigo. ❤🌸
Te dejo algunos colibríes que pinté guiándome de esos diseños.

Here in #Oaxaca the chepil is a very rich plant that is prepared in different ways and in its yellow flowers is this beauty. On a hike in the mountains, I came across a succulent plant and wanted to take pictures to share some of the ideas I find. Nature is my only theory of art and immersing myself in it appreciating every detail awakens me a thousand ideas. If you have a plant of these or another beautiful one in your garden, share them with me. ❤🌸
I leave you some hummingbirds I painted guiding me through those designs.
