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.

Salvavidas De Zipolite

 

Queremos agradecer a la comunidad de Zipolite, que poco a poco se van sumando para brindar apoyo a los Salvavidas Voluntarios de Zipolite, tanto los que nos ofrecen un plato de comida como los que nos han apoyado en especie. Es por ello que a continuación mencionaremos los recientes apoyos que nos han hecho llegar:
-Casa Blanca Zipolite y amigos canadienses por donar 12 boyas de rescate.
-Bar TNT Zipolite (Tina & Troy) por apoyarnos con la cantidad de $10,000.00 pesos para la compra de 5 pares de aletas.
-Angel Salinas de la Federación de Surf por apoyarnos con uniformes.
Así también a todos los que se están organizando para apoyar con una torre de Salvavidas en el lado de la Playa del Amor. Gracias de todo corazón de parte del Grupo
Salvavidas De Zipolite
.
Esto es una muestra de que si nos organizamos como comunidad sí se puede lograr lo que nos proponemos: MANTENER A SALVO A NUESTROS VISITANTES Y LOCALES.
Muchísimas Gracias a todos los involucrados🙏
