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.

On March 17, after the tragic murder of the Canadian Gabriel Shart in the Northeast Bypass, animal rights organizations and the Animal Care Center of the Municipality of El Marqués managed to rescue one of the three lost dogs. This is Rosa, a Labrador mix, who was found near the tollbooth.

Although one of the dogs unfortunately lost its life and another still remains free, the rescue team, with the support of a drone, continues its efforts to find the other pet. Meanwhile, the boxer dog, Rubí, and a black kitten were claimed by the victim's son and returned to Zipolite, Oaxaca, to be put up for adoption, since taking them to Canada, as Gabriel planned, was not possible.

Despite this, the Attorney General's Office has not yet reported progress in the investigation to find those responsible for the attack on this woman, known for her dedication to animal rescue.
