But back to the pulmonias. Most of the taxis are unique, Volkswagen powered, open air vehicles that are distinctly Mazatleca. Mexican tourists come from all over Mexico, especially Los Mochis and Durango. To entertain the male tourists, Mazatlan has 3 of the best strip clubs in Mexico, 2 of the best brothels and plenty of amateur and professional independent escorts.
Since prostitution is primarily for Mexicans, prices are some of the lowest in the country. Mazatlan is the largest city in Sinaloa, and one of the most violent drug states of Mexico.
A lot of the young men have been killed. Bad for them, good for you. The economy sucks, and eligible men are hard to come by. Teen widows and other gorgeous single women abound. Many are eager to get naked with you for an hour or two.
Tourism and Fishing Tourism and fishing are the only sources of income. Sports fishing is spectacular for marlin, dorado, tuna and the occasional swordfish.
Fishing for brothels and strip clubs is pretty spectacular, too. The beautiful beaches bring visiting surfers as well as normal tourists, though the city is protected from the biggest swells by the Baja Peninsula.
