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.

San José del Pacífico a magical place in Oaxaca

In San José del Pacífico you will be face to face with the clouds, magic and nature.

Have you ever dreamed of touching the clouds? Well, the place where that is possible exists and is called San José del Pacífico , a destination among the mountains full of magic. Located in the southern highlands of Oaxaca , this town at 2,5000 meters above sea level is a must-see for travelers heading to Zipolite and Mazunte .
In San José del Pacífico you will find impressive panoramic images , as it is surrounded by clouds and trees. However, one of the reasons for its fame is the mushrooms that grow in the immediate vicinity of the forest. The consumption of mushrooms in the region dates back to ancient times: they were already used by the Zapotecs for rituals of self-knowledge and religious revelation.
In contemporary times, numerous Mexican and foreign travelers have set about rediscovering this healing tool. During the 1960s its consumption became popular thanks to the shaman María Sabina.

What to do in San José del Pacífico?

To have a true experience, you can start by bundling up in one of the ponchos and sweaters knitted by the artisans of the region. As in almost every point of Oaxaca, in this magical place you can also taste a delicious mezcal accompanied by dishes of regional cuisine. If you are a lover of Italian food, we recommend you visit La Taberna de los Duendes, a place with a unique flavor.
You can take advantage and perform a complete ritual, starting with a purification in the temazcal . To have a greater contact with nature you can take a walk or take a mountain bike tour. Among the lodging options are comfortable cabins from which you can contemplate the journey of the clouds through the hills.
