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.ivan

ZIPOLITE BEACH
By: Val Dawson, author and the photographer.
Of all the places that I’ve been in Mexico, Zipolite was my favorite. It’s on the Southern Coast of Oaxaca and is about as far as away from your typical touristy Mexican beach town as you can get. I enjoyed its bohemian vibe, relaxed energy, and the stunning golden light. Now, I see what artists and painters mean when they say they go to Oaxaca for its light. It truly is magical.
To get there, I flew into Huatulco Airport and took a cab to Zipolite. One very helpful word of advice. Don’t hail a cab at the airport. Walk down the road a bit to where the bus stop is. All kinds of cabs will surround you and let you barter for a better price. I paid half of what I would have had to pay at the airport. You can also take a bus to Zipolite to which is even cheaper.
Zipolite is also known for its sea turtles. I happened to be there when some babies had just hatched! The man at the coconut water stand was caring for them until it was time to release them into the ocean, and his daughter enjoyed my excitement over seeing them.
I stayed at the lovely El Alquimista Cabanas when I was there. I think staying at this hotel was part of what made my stay so lovely. The hotel is located on its own little cove of the beach and is sheltered by rocks. I had my own cabana just steps from the sea. The sound of the ocean waves each night lulled me to sleep, and the beautiful sunrises each morning gently awakened me. The special thing about this beach was that you could see the sun set and rise from the same place. Playa Zipolite is also known as “beach of the dead”. There can be a lot of dangerous currents, and it was incredible sight to watch the ocean waves intersect and bisect each other in a way that I had never seen before. There were, however, safe areas for swimming. I enjoyed body surfing in the waves each day. The hotel also offered yoga and some of the most delicious food that I ate in all of Oaxaca!
I enjoyed the whimsical and spiritual aspects of this beach. Shambala is a well-known spiritual retreat center that I hiked up the hill to each morning to watch the sun come up. If you like off the beaten path places that have a different energy than other places you might have explored, you will absolutely love Zipolite!

12-9 Zipolite Beach The Adventures of Alohaman, Tasha & The Beast 2007
12-9 Zipolite Beach
I lost my photos of the cockfight and will have to wait until Tasha sends me some replacements. In the meantime... Tasha and I both fell in love with Zipolite. It's a laid back and homegenous community with the most eclectic mix of humanity you could hope for. Mexican, Europeans, ex and current hippies, expatriates from all over the world and all seem mellow and laid back... perhaps because of the good Mexican weed I smell throughout the town... whatever. Here are some photos Tasha took on or around the area during the 10 days we were there...This is Fernando's premiere breeding cock. He won 5 fights and was put out to stud...
after several years and siring mutiple winners he is still the dominant cock in the yard
Tasha Couldn't Resist The Name
Follow are some examples of their beautiful sunsets.
We began to question whether they rival Hawaii.
Fernando took us into this church prior to the cockfight.
Believe it or not, the guy below owns several hotels.
Big cockfighting bettor and sponsor. I think the guys around him are bodyguards.
Putting the spur on fighting cock.
Fernando the main judge at the cockfights.
