Playa Zipolite. Welcome To The Beach Of The Dead!: Primavera Oaxaca continues to provide aid to the productive sector to get the coast back on its feet.

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 management of temporary jobs is underway through the Young People Building the Future program.

Oaxaca de Juárez, Oaxaca. July 1, 2025.- The State Government continues to provide direct attention to the productive sector affected by Hurricane Erika. Following the instructions of Governor Salomón Jara, a list of applicants was sent to the Financiera para el Bienestar (Finabien), which authorized 70 loans to tourism service providers.

The State Tourism Secretariat (Sectur Oaxaca) reported that residents of eight communities in the Villa de Tututepec de Melchor Ocampo region were included in this list.

In addition, he explained, temporary employment is also being arranged through the Youth Building the Future program, which will help get the coast back on its feet.

These actions are in addition to the beach cleanup efforts in Puerto Escondido's Main Bay and Zipolite Beach in San Pedro Pochutla, and in communities in the Villa de Tututepec de Melchor Ocampo, such as Cerro Hermoso, Campamento Cerro Hermoso, Chacahua Isla, Chacahua la Grúa, El Zapotalito, and El Azufre; as well as in Mariano Matamoros, Corralero, and Paso de la Garrocha, in the municipality of Santiago Pinotepa Nacional.

This cleanup involved the removal of 259 tons of debris using three backhoes and 27 dump trucks. One thousand 64 brigade members from the Oaxaca Ministry of Public Works (Sectur Oaxaca), Ángeles Verdes (Green Angels), municipal authorities, the Ministry of National Defense (Sedena), the Ministry of the Navy (Semar), the National Guard (GN), volunteers, and members of the Mexican Workers' Confederation (CTM), with the support of the federal Ministry of Tourism, which contributed machinery for these tasks, participated.
