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.

Huatulco (day 2)

This campground is a kind of a funny location. It has a golf course on one side, and a chunk of forest on the other, and then a big resort. On the other side of the golf course there are two more large resorts...a Barcelo property, and a Dreams resort.

We sat out for a while in the morning and watched the birds. It's a great place for bird watchers.

You know you're pretty far south when you can see birds like this in the wild!

Then we went for a walk on the beach before it got too hot. Like I said, this beach has three large resorts on it, and so there's lots of people from Canada here. It seems odd to be camping in a tent on the same beach as these people!

The Dreams resort on the right, and the Barcelo resort on the left.

Looking back at the resorts from "our" end of the beach.

Then we went back and had an early lunch and decided what to do for the afternoon. We ended up driving over to Playa La Entrega which is a really pretty beach and very calm so it's great for snorkeling.

View from our table.

We sat at a typical palapa restaurant. I thought the prices were pretty expensive so I went and checked the menus at some of the other restaurants. Turns out that this area is quite a bit more expensive than Puerto Escondido. I ended up just ordering one beer so that we could actually use the table and the shade. They weren't busy, so it wasn't like we were taking up a spot.

Playa La Entrega

Birthday boy!

We sat out with Joyce and David in the evening and shared a meal together. We solved all of the worlds problems too! Who do we write to with the solutions...?
