at a glance

Whether accepting or declining, one should always show kindness to the vendor in respect of their trade and hard work - the activity of a salesman can be extremely tiring, so a smile and the exchange of pleasantries is often a much appreciated display of warmth in their day.

individual vendors do not have the intention of forcing consumers to buy their products but since the work might be their livelihood they do their best to show their products and increase interaction time with beach goers.

a variety of products can be seen for sale on the beach and include sarongs, selfie sticks, running shoes, sun glasses, bracelets and sun hats - all of the sales individuals are generally friendly, approachable and illuminate the exchange of goods in the city.   arrow-back     arrow-forward
