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.

Oaxaca is one of the most important places in Mexico, thanks to its cultural, artistic and gastronomic legacy, as well as its architecture, since the historic center of Oaxaca de Juárez is considered a World Heritage Site and known as the 'green antequera'. Although it is a coastal region, full of beaches , Magical Towns and more, there are also beautiful municipalities that are hidden corners of the state.

THE WOUNDS OF THE WIND.

LAS HERIDAS DEL VIENTO.
El viento y el agua llegaron con fuerza a la playa Zipolite en la costa Oaxaqueña.
Ruge el mar con fuerza, brinca,salta
y despacio el viento avanza.
Por senderos y veredas,
por las calles y caminos,
en caudalosos ríos convertidos
por el agua del mar salada
y con dulce agua de los ríos
llegó Agatha a destruir lo construido.
Zipolite vive
Zipolite está de pie,
Mano con mano lucharemos
unidos cómo hermanos con fuerza y con fe.
Zipolite vive
Zipolite está de pie.
Árboles de raíz arrancados
arrastrados por los ríos desbordados a la playa Zipolite los llevaron
Las hojas y las ramas del Almendro imponente
no pudieron solas desprenderse.
obligadas por la fuerza del viento las llevo a dónde no pertenecen
Fuerte, grande, impetuoso y arrogante de raíz se llevó al gigante huanacastle.
Zipolite vive
Zipolite está de pie,
Mano con mano lucharemos
unidos como hermanos con fuerza y con fé,
Zipolite vive,
Zipolite está de de pie
Laminas de los techos de las casas, muros, bardas y cercas se volaron,
hombres y mujeres, niños y niñas, jóvenes y no tan jóvenes con los vecinos se resguardaron.
Seis horas de implacable viento,
Seis horas de húmedo tormento,
Seis horas esperando el final funesto
Y al final de la feroz lluvia, locales y extranjeros corriendo salen para ver qué ya no existe lo que antes tuvieron.
Las heridas del viento que Agatha dejo curadas y sanadas por el tiempo que avanza lento de recuerdo nos dejó.
Zipolite vive,
Zipolite está de pie,
Mano con mano lucharemos
unidos como hermanos con fuerza y con fé,
Zipolite vive,
Zipolite está de pie.

Zipolite, Oaxaca, México.
THE WOUNDS OF THE WIND.
The wind and the water came in force at Zipolite beach on the Oaxacaña coast.
The sea roars hard, bounce, jump
and slowly the wind blows.
By paths and sidewalks
through the streets and roads,
into flowing rivers turned
by the salty sea water
and with fresh water of the rivers
Agatha came to destroy what was built.
Zipolite lives on
Zipolite is standing up,
Hand in hand we will fight
united as brothers in strength and in faith.
Zipolite lives on
Zipolite is standing up.
Trees uprooted
dragged by the overflowing rivers to the beach zipolite took them
The leaves and branches of the imposing Almond
they couldn't pull it off on their own.
bound by the force of the wind take them where they do not belong
Strong, big, impetuous and arrogant of root took the giant huanacastle.
Zipolite lives on
Zipolite is standing up,
Hand in hand we will fight
united as brothers in strength and faith,
Zipolite lives on,
Zipolite is standing up
Roof sheets of houses, walls, fences and fences were blown away,
men and women, boys and girls, young and not so young with neighbors were saved.
Six hours of relentless wind
Six hours of wet torment,
Six hours waiting for fatal ending
And at the end of the torrential rain, locals and foreigners running out to see what no longer exists what they had before.
The wounds of the wind that Agatha left healed and healed by the slow moving memory time she left us.
Zipolite lives on,
Zipolite is standing up,
Hand in hand we will fight
united as brothers in strength and faith,
Zipolite lives on,
Zipolite is standing up.
