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.

The fire broke out early this Saturday and also affected a motorcycle and water tanks; No injuries have been reported nor are the causes known.

Oaxaca de Juárez .— A strong fire in the cobblestone area of ​​Zipolite burned down a tourist establishment early this Saturday and reached another one, as well as a motorcycle, before being put out by residents and firefighters from the municipality of Pochutla. 

The incident occurred in this tourist destination on the Oaxaca Coast, the only one that officially tolerates nudity in the country, at approximately 4:00 in the morning this Saturday, at the northern end of the cobblestone, an area known as Roca Blanca . 

Although it was initially reported that the fire started on the beach line, it actually started in the business formerly known as Zen Louge, between the Hotel One and the Gupalli Spa, residents informed EL UNIVERSAL .

The fire quickly reached another nearby palapa, several water tanks and a motorcycle. Although the fire only left material damage and no injuries were reported, the fire completely burned the Zen Louge and a palapa of another establishment. 

Residents of Zipolite reported that the fire was put out by neighbors, people who sell water in pipes and elements of the Heroic Fire Department of Pochutla, where Zipolite administratively belongs. Municipal Civil Protection authorities were also present; However, the causes of the accident are currently unknown.
