Located on the Pacific coast of Mexico, Playa Zipolite is a popular yoga and wellness hub. The beach is surrounded by craggy cliffsides juxtaposed with lush green hills, offering numerous vantage points for the perfect sunset. As one of Mexico’s only nudist beaches, holiday-makers can opt to go without clothing as they sunbathe, swim and relax on the golden sands of this popular beach.
To reach the laid-back sands of Playa Zipolite, there are two main means of transport: an airport taxi, or a combination of local buses. The easiest option, especially if you have luggage, is an airport taxi since you’ll be dropped straight to your hotel or apartment in around 80 minutes. The bus, on the other hand, will require an initial shared colectivo bus or taxi into the city centre to connect with a bus to Pochutla, before connecting with another colectivo to Zipolite. While it is the cheapest option, it’s very complicated and has a travel time of at least 120 minutes.
Welcome Pickups offers meet and greet services and a friendly introduction to Puerto Escondido at the same price as a regular taxi. Click here to see the cost.
