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.

The intrepid journey from Pochutla to Oaxaca by bus or van
Hello there!
I'm trying to figure out my travel from the Mazunte/Zipolite area to Oaxaca City. I'm wondering if anyone has any thoughts on the buses that run from Pochutla? Some friends recommended I book an ADO bus because it's far more pleasant than traveling by van. It's a very long journey though (9 hours), which is a little off-putting...
A couple of questions:
1) Has anyone taken the ADO overnight? Sleeping seems like a good way to pass the time. Is that crazy? Is it better to do the journey during the day for the amazing view or any other reasons? I would love some first hand advice!
2) What is the difference between the ADO bus and the vans I've been hearing about? All I know is that the trips are shorter by a few hours. Is this true?
3) Does anyone have any info about said vans - companies, experience, etc - as I haven't had much luck finding it online?
Thank you so much!

Have you tried Aerotucan? Looks like they have flights every day from PE to Oaxaca. It's a fun flight.

México celebra Zipolite, su popular festival nudista

México celebra Zipolite, su 

popular festival nudista

La Federación Nudista de México anunció que todo está listo 

para la gran fiesta en la que la gente se quita la ropa, Mirá cómo es

Por Redacción LA










El Festival de Zipolite, en el estado sureño de Oaxaca, uno de los más pobres, con mayor población indígena, rendirá culto a la desnudez al estilo de un carnaval en su próxima edición del 2 al 4 de febrero
La Playa de Zipolite, en las tranquilas aguas del Pacífico, es prácticamente la única en México dedicada a practicar el nudismo, una forma de ocio que gana cada vez más adeptos en el mundo
El lugar se ha vuelto una especie de santuario para los liberales que anhelan mostrarse al natural, con la piel totalmente al descubierto
La Federación Nudista de México (FNM) anunció que todo está listo para la realización de la tercera edición del Festival Nudista de Zipolite 2018, que se llevará a cabo del 2 al 4 de febrero.La apertura del festival, que tendrá un estilo carnavalesco, aprovechando que se avecinan esas fiestas en algunas localidades del país,
iniciará el viernes 2 con la Calenda de bienvenida, un desfile donde participan escuelas de la comunidad, bandas de música, habitantes de los pueblos aledaños y nudistas.El Presidente de la FMN, Juan Marcos Castañeda, informó que se realizarán actividades como danzas regionales, conciertos musicales, obras de teatro, clases de yoga nudista, así como carreras de obstáculos y sin ellos
También se prevé un tour marino nudista para avistar ballenas y tortugas, voleibol playero, un taller de pintura corporal, una fotografía grupal de nudistas y un "temazcal" (baño de vapor a la usanza indígena), entre otras actividades
El encuentro tiene lugar en vista del éxito alcanzado en las primeras dos ediciones del festival, donde los organizadores aseguran que "se lograron algunas metas importantes", como la declaración municipal de playa nudista opcional, lo que coloca a este destino como la única playa nudista oficial de México.Zipolite registró desde entonces un crecimiento en ocupación hotelera durante las fechas de este evento, que en 2016 fue de 85%, mientras que en 2017 fue del 95% y se espera que para este 2018 sea del 100 %
El festival se ha convertido por lo tanto en una especie de imán para el "turismo nudista" superando las celebraciones de Año Nuevo y hasta las de Semana Santa
La Oficina de Convenciones y Visitantes de Oaxaca ha decidido apoyar y promover este evento, como lo dio a conocer su directora Mariel López
En los próximos meses comienza la construcción del club Nature Zipolite, el primero 100% por ciento nudista en México, "un centro de reunión permanente para naturistas que impulsará el nudismo local y no sólo el turístico", afirmó López.Se prevé además a partir de la tercera edición del festival realizar una campaña sobre el "nudismo social y familiar" entre la comunidad.Otra de las metas es un acercamiento con restaurantes y bares de Zipolite y se colocará una bandera de la Federación Nudista de México en aquellos que permitan el nudismo en sus establecimientos
El propósito, a decir de Castañeda, es "desmitificar el concepto de la desnudez humana y desvincularlo del sexo" para lograr "la libertad, la aceptación del cuerpo y el contacto con la naturaleza"
Desde 2015 los nudistas se reúnen a realizar convivencias, según el dirigente, pues en la Ciudad de México hay algunas actividades fijas como yoga al desnudo, caminatas, reuniones en piscinas y en bosques en varios estados
También en Veracruz, Michoacán, Estado de México, Puebla, Morelos, Guanajuato y Jalisco, "se han formado pequeñas asociaciones o grupos de gente que se han sumado a este movimiento y disfrutan de convivir sin ropa", dijo Castañeda.

CANADIAN GOVERNMENT UPDATES TRAVEL WARNING FOR NORTH, WESTERN STATES OF MEXICO JANUARY 7, 2018 PAUL DEVIN

Canadian government updates travel warning for north, western MexicoMexico Travel 


CANADIAN GOVERNMENT UPDATES TRAVEL WARNING FOR NORTH, WESTERN STATES OF MEXICO

The Canadian government has issued a new travel warning for Canadians traveling to northern and western states of Mexico.
The warning, which was valid on the government website as of January 7, states that citizens should avoid non-essential travel to the northern Mexican states Chihuahua, Coahuila (except the city of Saltillo), Durango, Nuevo León (except the city of Monterrey), Sinaloa (except the city of Mazatlán), Sonora (except the cities of Hermosillo and Guaymas/San Carlos) and Tamaulipas.
Northern states
We strongly recommend travelling to Mexico by air to avoid land border crossings, particularly in the northern states of Chihuahua, Coahuila, Nuevo León, Sonora and Tamaulipas.
In northern Mexico, particularly along the border with the United States, organized crime and urban violence greatly affect security. Confrontations between organized criminal groups and Mexican authorities continue to pose a problem. Shootouts, attacks and illegal roadblocks may occur without warning.
Avoid inter-city road travel in the northern states. Heavily armed gangs have attacked travelers driving through the state of Tamaulipas and on several highways in the states of Coahuila, Durango, Nuevo León and Sinaloa. Criminals especially target sport utility vehicles and full-size pickup trucks for theft and carjacking along highways.
In the city of Monterrey, avoid travelling outside the suburb of San Pedro or other well-populated areas after evening rush hour.
Western states
The travel warning adds the western Mexican states of Guerrero (including the city of Acapulco, but excluding the cities of Ixtapa, Taxco and Zihuatanejo) and the state of Michoacán (excluding the city of Morelia).
Criminal activity is high in the states of Colima, Guerrero, Jalisco, Michoacán and Nayarit. Illegal roadblocks and demonstrations are common. The deterioration of the security situation is particularly noticeable in the rural areas of Guerrero and Michoacán. Vigilante militias have fired at vehicles that did not stop at their roadblocks.
The government of Canada issued the travel alert noting the state’s danger due to growing criminal activity and little response from the authorities for the arrest of criminals.
Crime rates in Mexico are high. Arrest and detention rates are low and contribute to higher levels of criminality. The level of crime in resorts and major tourist cities and destinations is relatively low compared to the national average.
The Canadian government adds, “More than 2.1 million Canadians travel to Mexico each year, the vast majority of them without incident.” The state of Quintana Roo, home to global beach destinations including Cancun and Riviera Maya were not part of the travel warning.

Mexico: Cold temperatures may impact papayas, limes Fresh Fruit Portal “We haven't experienced any weather so far that has been too cold or would create any adverse effects on the mango crop in any of the regions like Oaxaca, Chiapas, Nayarit and Sinaloa,” she said. “My last update I received on the crop was yesterday and weather has been cooperative and the crop is ...


Mexico: Cold temperatures may impact papayas, limes
“We haven't experienced any weather so far that has been too cold or would create any adverse effects on the mango crop in any of the regions like Oaxaca, Chiapas, Nayarit and Sinaloa,” she said. “My last update I received on the crop was yesterday and weather has been cooperative and the crop is ...


Mexico’s cold snap is having varying degrees of impact on the country’s fruit growers in what is a large and geographically diverse country, but at this early stage some traders have been able to form an idea of the phenomenon’s implications for supply.
Melissa Hartmann de Barros of Florida-based importer HLB Specialties told Fresh Fruit Portal the cold weather in Michoacán was not causing damage to the blooms or trees in papaya orchards, but was “indeed slowing down production”.
“Since our papaya production area is closer to the Pacific, the cold is not affecting us as much as in regions in the north and Mexican Gulf area,” she said yesterday.
“But we are still seeing unseasonably lower temperatures (14°C/57°F) when usually they are closer to 18-20°C at the lowest (64-68°F).
“When temperatures get below 16°C for a prolonged period of time, the plant goes dormant. This means that the roots don’t transfer enough nutrients to the plant and the fruit doesn’t ripen.”
She said this meant the metabolism of the plant only worked for a limited number of hours, thus not allowing the fruit enough time to mature.
The executive added limes were usually slow at this time of year, but production was now even slower than normal.
“These crops are closer to the coast (Veracruz), so the cold is affecting limes more than papayas,” she said. 
Jim Donovan, senior vice president of global sourcing at avocado company Mission Produce, yesterday said there had so far been been no issues or impacts in the avocado-growing states of Michoacán or Jalisco.
“Of course the severity and size of the cold front is concerning. Logistically we have not encountered too many issues on the Mexico side,” Donovan said.
“Certainly on the USA/Canada side it has created a little slow down but not major yet.”
Nissa Pierson of Crespo Organic yesterday said the weather so far hadn’t been so bad for mango crops in the western and southern parts of the country.
“We haven’t experienced any weather so far that has been too cold or would create any adverse effects on the mango crop in any of the regions like Oaxaca, Chiapas, Nayarit and Sinaloa,” she said.
“My last update I received on the crop was yesterday and weather has been cooperative and the crop is actually looking very nice and fruitful.”
Other states such as Sonora, known for its table grapes, have actually seen a warmer winter than usual. Click here to read more.
