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.

Saint Patrick’s Day is a holiday that has a deep meaning unique to Mexico. Here’s why...

During the Mexican-American War (1846-1848), around 200 soldiers in the U.S. Army – many of Irish decent – deserted and joined the Mexican Army. Various explanations of why they chose to do so have been offered. Perhaps they were driven by ideology, since as immigrants who had experienced discrimination they identified with the Mexicans living in the U.S. southern states. Perhaps they deserted for economic reasons, since the Mexican Army reportedly promised higher pay than could be earned in the U.S. Army. Perhaps it was familial ties, since relatively large numbers of Irish had migrated to Mexico during the Great Famine in Ireland.
