• Expect to be addressed with descriptive nicknames, which are generally not intended as offense.
• Be prepared for friendly comments regarding physical appearance or weight.
• Using formal language is recommended when speaking to strangers or those in authority.
• Respect local faith practices and avoid ridiculing beliefs.
• Men may find that wearing long pants is preferred over shorts.
• Appropriate beach attire should be worn, avoiding toplessness.
• Use formal Spanish forms ('usted'/'ustedes') when addressing strangers, older people, or those in authority. Attaching 'Don' or 'Doña' before a name is a polite form of address. Dressing neatly is advised, and while beachwear is common, toplessness is inappropriate. Respect local faith practices, as overt proselytization may be unwelcome.
