Summer Vacay

One tablet per person is allowed without being taxed. Your cell phone is fine.

I am coming to Zihua on July 10 for the first time during my summer. Are there some things that I need to be more aware of at this time of year than during my regular visits which occur sometime between December-March?

A local family graciously requested me to become a Padrino to one of their sons thirteen years ago. There is another celebration in the middle of July and that is the reason for my visit. As a gift, I am bringing him a tablet for school. If I unbox this tech, what are the chances of bringing the gift tablet, my own tablet and an iphone without paying duty?

I still plan on doing the things I do when I visit during our winter in Canada. Playing pickleball, fly fishing and supporting local businesses.

In my fifteen years of coming to Zihua, it has never rained when I have been here! I imagine things will be different.

This is what the Mexican government says you can bring to Mexico as an airplane passenger:

Bring your rain sandals.

I have never had a problem bringing two iPads in through MEX. I’m fortunate to not have had to deal with aduana at ZIH for about five years. I don’t mind paying reasonably. But when a friend paid more than the purchase price to bring me an Apple TV… or when I had to pay duty on a 10 year old blender, I decided to avoid aduana at ZIH if at all possible.

You will find it a bit different in the summer. A bit slower, a bit warmer, and SO GREEN!! Do be aware of the heat. Feel the ocean, it's HOT!

Enjoy your visit and thanks for your sponsorship of the young one.
