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.

Mexico City Metro to stop using paper tickets in 2024

Next year, the Mexico City subway’s paper tickets will be a thing of the past: riders will have to use a rechargeable card, according to Metro head Guillermo Calderón. 

The new cards, known as Integrated Mobility (MI) cards, are already in use and required for Line 12. Line 1 — currently under renovation — will be the first to follow Line 12 with the requirement, Calderón said Monday during a press conference with Mexico City Mayor Claudia Sheinbaum.

While Calderón did not give an exact date for when the transition would begin, he said that the switchover next year would be a gradual process.

“Line 1 will fully move on to the prepaid system of the Integrated Mobility Card, and by next year, the entire Metro System will only be using the electronic payment system,” he said.

Launched in 2020, the MI card is a payment method to access the city’s Metro, Metrobús, Light Train, Cablebús, Trolebús and Ecobici transportation networks. In addition to the Metro ticketing office, users can top up their cards using the MercadoPago app, the largest online payment platform in the country.

In a statement published early March, Mexico City’s government reported more than 4.3 million recharges to the MI card through MercadoPago. This is equivalent to some 192.6 million pesos (US $10.6 million) and 28.5 million trips on the city’s transportation network. 

Mexico City’s Metro boasts that the cost of its ticket is one of the cheapest in the world: since 2013, a  Metro ticket has cost just 5 pesos (worth a bit more than a U.S. quarter), according to the city government.

The capital’s Metro system — the country’s most-used public transportation network — ferried more than 241 million people in 2022’s first quarter, according to the Metro’s own data. According to the newspaper Expansión, 2.5 million people have stopped using the Metro since the pandemic began.
