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.

Big news everybody!!! We're hosting NOGAJAM, a new jam format in Zipolite starting next Monday! There's gonna be microphones, amps, guitars, a bass, an acoustic drumkit and keys. Opening the jam: Howard from New Orleans (drummer) and Adam from Toronto (voice&guit) along with me. All musicians and non musicians are invited! There's gonna be a cozy lounge/living room setting and plenty of cute cats (like real cats) possibly wanting to cuddle and chill out. You can bring your own instrument and we'll make sure it's gonna get amplified. Can't wait to see you all there and surf out this new way of making music together... Thanks to Hotel Noga to opening up the space and supporting the vision! And if you can share the news, post it on your Facebook, tell your friends and fellow musicians that'd be awesome and will help us make it stay! Jam starts at 7PM till 10ish ❤️

Having fun at Zipolite, the nudist beach in San Pedro Pochutla, depends on a fine balance set by rules and mutual respect. But violating them can mean fines of up to 5,000 pesos (US $265).

Zipolite municipal agent David Rodríguez told Estado Actual that the local administration works jointly with tourist service providers to eradicate many inappropriate practices on the part of visitors. 

The latter, he continued, must learn to respect the rules that exist in each place and establishment they go to. 

In cases that ended in fines, said Rodríguez, offenders were always warned first to stop their behavior. The fine is only applied when the infringing actions continue. 

Common infractions include showing up naked outside the beach and other nudist areas, having intercourse in public areas, or abusing drugs or alcoholic beverages.

Rodríguez stressed that the Zipolite nudist beach is not for sexual encounters, but for living an experience with nature, or living nudism as an experience of respect among mutuals and respect for sexual diversity.

As an example, he said, nudism on the beach is one thing, no one can tell you anything if you are naked on the beach, but problems start when you leave the designated area. 

“There are places, establishments that allow nudism, such as the hotel Nude, but there are others that do not, and visitors must respect that, they must cover themselves in public areas such as parks, shops or other establishments,” said the municipal agent. 

He recalled an incident a few months ago when there was a problem with a group of swingers who tried to have a private party on a public beach where large events are not allowed.

The organizers complained when their event was canceled, and authorities had to explain that while everyone can use the beach, rules set by the community assembly for healthy coexistence must be followed.
