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.

Our workshops are a collaboration between people with and without disabilities, and are open to the local community as well as travelers who are interested in socially-conscious activities while traveling:
CLAY: Each week we offer a clay workshop. This is a great opportunity for people of all ages, with and without disabilities, to take part in the creative process of working with clay. Our clay workshop is the only one with a fixed schedule, Wednesdays (3:00pm to 5:00pm) and Saturdays (10:00am to 12:00pm).
BIRD MOBILE PAINTING: The painting workshop is where we create our signature birds. In this workshop, you have the opportunity to see how we build our birds, and then paint the body of the birds with wings that are already decorated. We'll assemble your bird mobile for you so you can take it with you!
COCONUT OIL: Have you ever wondered how coconut oil is made? In this workshop, you'll learn step-by-step how we make our artisan, cold-pressed coconut oil. You'll start by chopping coconuts and trying the coconut fruit, the manzana. After drying the coconut meat, we use a bicycle mill and hand press to extract the coconut oil. Included in the cost of this workshop is a bottle of our own artisanal coconut oil.
RECYCLED PAPER: In Piña Palmera we make a variety of recycled paper products from diaries to notebooks to picture frames to single sheets. During this workshop, you'll learn how we make our recycled paper, which is possible to do at home! You'll also learn how we color our paper using local plants such as bougainvillea. You'll take sheets of recycled paper with you after the workshop!
WORM COMPOSTING: We have worm composting in Piña with California red wigglers. Come see how our food breaks down naturally when it isn't tossed into the landfill. The worms play an important role in creating a rich natural fertilizer, perfect for a garden. This workshop is a favorite for the little ones!

'Super ecological' rink is cheaper and environmentally friendly, says mayor

Mexico City’s annual holiday season tradition of ice skating in the zócalo has a new twist this year: the rink has no ice.
The ice-free skating rink was inaugurated on Saturday by Mayor Claudia Sheinbaum, who extolled the ecological benefits of a plastic skating surface.
“We are inaugurating a new skating rink, we call it Ecologísssima [super ecological],” she said. “Its grand quality is that you can skate on it just like ice, but it saves 800 tonnes of carbon dioxide and 307 liters of gasoline.”
Sheinbaum cut the inaugural ribbon with a representative of the Swiss company Glice, which installed the rink, before national figure skating champion Donovan Carrillo Suazo gave the “ice” a try to music by children of the Monumental Choir of Mexico.
The show also included performances by other Mexican figure skaters while the choir sang Mexican standards like Cielito Lindo and Feliz Navidad.

After the performance, young people from the Institute of Youth gave the rink a try. They said it was more difficult to skate on than real ice, but it also helped prevent them from falling.
The ice-free rink will be open daily from 9:00am to 9:00pm until January 6. To reserve ice skates and time on the rink, go to the Ecologísssima website (in Spanish) or stop by one of the registration booths in the zócalo.

Christmas in Oaxaca means it’s time for radishes, but not for eating them Over 100 competitors will carve the vegetables into all kinds of creations for the annual Night of the Radishes Published on Monday, December 16, 2019

Christmas in Oaxaca means it’s time for radishes, but not for eating them

Over 100 competitors will carve the vegetables into all kinds of creations for the annual Night of the Radishes



In Oaxaca city, add giant, gnarled radishes to the list of must-haves for the Christmas season.
Noche de Rábanos (Night of the Radishes) on December 23 combines farming and hand carving to create one of the most important events in the capital city.
The event dates back to 1897 when the city organized the first competition. Previously, there had been a tradition of carving overgrown, inedible radishes into curious figures at the Christmas market as a way of getting the attention of passers-by. Legend states that friars in the mid-18th century pulled up some forgotten radishes in December and took them to the market as curiosities.
The use of radishes as marketing gimmicks died out, but the popularity of the contest grew and the city supervises the growing and distribution of the radishes used. They come exclusively from a field in Santa Cruz Xoxocotlán, using techniques and chemicals that prohibit their use as food. The radishes, which can grow up to 50 centimeters long, are cultivated in three plantings to have radishes of different sizes when they are harvested on December 19.
The vegetables take on capricious and sometimes wild shapes, challenging carvers to take advantage of them. The scenes are elaborate, taking up to hundreds of radishes to complete. The variety used has a red exterior and white interior and most carvers take advantage of this contrast in their work. Sometimes the leaves of the plant are used as well.

Hundreds of radishes went into creating this turkey at last year's event.

Today, the event attracts over 100 competitors and the main square of Oaxaca fills with thousands of people filing past the booths set up for each entry. There are categories for traditional and non-traditional scenes as well for age groups. There are also categories for scenes made from dried flowers and corn husks. Most of the competitors are artisans in other fields, such as wood carving and pottery.
Artisan Serafin Muñoz says that carving the woody radishes is not easy, with the risk of a “war wound” being very real.
The event only lasts one day, with the display itself over only in a matter of hours. This is because the radishes wilt and lose shape shortly after being carved.
