"Local peddlers!" Top 5 Page for this destination Financial/Shopping Tip by guybert

Financial/Shopping, Mazatlán: 10 reviews and 3 photos

 
 

Like all tourist areas in Mexico, there are a lot of the locals that try to sell you things either on the street, on the beaches or even when you are sitting in a restaurant having a meal. Most are not a problem & they leave you alone once you tell them that you don't want anything, but there are always some that don't want to take NO for an answer. You then have to be more forcefull in saying NO or just walk away from them.
But we have found most to be very friendly & they enjoy spending time joking around with you (you have to realize that they are just trying to earn a living.
------Pic is of Lynda joking around with a few peddlers on Stone Island.
