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.

 Un Nuevo Amanecer Benefit Concert 
Hello Everybody: Most of those who were in Huatulco last January and February and had a chance to attend the Nuevo Amanecer concerts agreed that they were the music events of the year.
Get ready to raise the roof again. Mark Monday, February 4 on your calendar for an evening of cold beer and great music, and all for a good cause. All proceeds from the concert will benefit Un Nuevo Amanecer, a nonprofit organization located in La Crucecita that assists children with developmental problems.
The organizers of the Puerto Escondido Blues Festival have made arrangements to share with us their headline act for that week. Thank you Billy! Join us at the beautiful Latitude 15 beach club on Chahue Bay at 8PM on February 4 to enjoy the hard rocking guitarist Neil Chapman; the raw, soulful voice and emotive guitar skills of Chris Caddell; and one of Canada’s best blues harp players, Paul Reddick.
Tickets will be 250 pesos in advance and 300 at the door and 150 pesos for students and teachers. Tickets will be available later this week at:
Hemingway’s
Café Juanita
Resort Real Estate Services
Palm Properties
If you are staying at one of the AI's that week, please PM me to see how you can "share the word".
Regards, Dan
