Discover the enchanting attraction of Zipolite, a hidden gem nestled along Oaxaca’s Pacific coast, just 75 minutes from Huatulco! Zipolite is a quintessential Mexican beach town both relaxed and vibrant. Zipolite’s claim to fame is its nude beach. In fact, since 2016, Playa Zipolite is Mexico’s first and only legal nude beach. It’s not required to be nude, however, most beachgoers stick to their swimwear. Our day will include shopping, swimming in the sparkling ocean, sunbathing, and an eclectic three-course lunch with cold drinks at the hotel that put Zipolite on the map. Next stop, a mezcal tasting (the Oaxacan spirit of choice). Last stop: in hand – your beverage of choice — as you sit on a swing under a beach hut and the sand tickles your toes. Of course, you’ll have a spectacular ocean view.
