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.

El Popo’s ash fall closes Puebla airport Eruptions seen at both El Popo and Colima Volcano this month


El Popo’s ash fall closes Puebla airport

Eruptions seen at both El Popo and Colima Volcano this month

 
Two of Mexico’s most active volcanoes have been somewhat more active than usual in recent weeks, and the ash fall from one of them closed Puebla’s airport yesterday.
The airport resumed operations at 7:00am today after crews finished cleaning volcanic ash from the runways overnight.
The airport was closed yesterday afternoon after exhalations by the volcano Popocatépetl.
The National Disaster Prevention Center (Cenapred) reported there were nine hours of activity yesterday, which included eight eruptions, and further activity again early this morning, when increased incandescence was visible during exhalations.
Also known as El Popo, the volcano is situated 55 kilometers southeast of Mexico City. Thousands of people were evacuated from their homes during its last major eruption in 2000.
Straddling the border between the states of Colima and Jalisco, the Colima Volcano was active earlier this month. Explosions with high ash content, accompanied by eruption lightning, were seen on January 3.
The renewed activity at Colima, also known as the Volcano of Fire, has prompted tour company Volcano Discovery to offer a four-day expedition where participants can learn more about the volcano with a geologist-volcanologist guide and take photos.
The February 15-19 tour will use various viewing locations both day and night, while accommodation will be provided about seven kilometers from the summit.

Mexico Rescues Over 12,000 Endangered Turtle Eggs

Mexico Rescues Over 12,000 Endangered Turtle Eggs

Mexican authorities recovered a total of 12,188 abandoned Golfina turtle eggs along the shores of the Pacific coast states of Michoacan and Oaxaca.
According to a report from News Ghana, Profepa, Mexico's environmental protection agency, oversaw the rescue for the abandoned turtle eggs.
The environmental inspectors joined forces with the Mexican navy for the project, a report from Fox News Latino said. The team recovered two nests and 188 eggs in Mexiquillo and Barra Turpina beaches of Michoacan. An additional 11 nests and about 12,000 eggs were found at the beach of Morro Ayuta in Oaxaca.
After the operations, the recovered eggs were brought to the Mexican Turtle Center for incubation.
An endangered specie, the Golfina turtle is known to be the smallest sea turtle. Michoacan and Oaxaca are both considered to be primary nesting spots for the creature, which is why conservation efforts are being implemented in the area.
The past several months have shown a surge in the efforts of protecting sea turtles and other marine creatures in Mexico. Last September 2015, it was reported that authorities have taken to using drones to spot and identify poachers who prey on the turtle eggs that have become a delicacy in the country.
According to a report from Discovery, the drones were equipped with a GPS system and a camera to better find what locals call "hueveros" or egg robbers. The pair of drones that were first used by the officials were supplied by Mexico's College of Environmental Engineers.
Selling and eating turtle eggs have long been practiced by the Chontal and Zapotec indigenous communities. Although it has been banned since 1990, there are still poachers who hunt for the eggs for its demand.
On the opposite side of the world, over 300 Olive Ridley turtles and a dolphin were found dead along the shore of Puri Beach, India recently, according to Times of India. Dead turtles are not unusual to see washed up by the beach, but the massive number caught the attention of locals.
"This is unfortunate that a large number of Olive Ridley turtles died on the beach," Puri collector Arabinda Agarwal said to the media. "It seemed they were hit by trawlers."
Beach Protection Council of Odisha (BPCO) Jagannath Bastia explained that implementation of the fishing ban during nesting periods are important to keep marine life protected saying, "Trawlers continued to carry out illegal fishing during the ban period due to poor patrolling by marine police and forest authorities."

Well it's been almost a week now since the legendary Phish shows at the Barceló resort in the Mayan Riviera, about 20 minutes south of Playa del Carmen. Here are some pics from the "cheap seats" on the beach. Story to follow. . .
