The Canadian Consular Agent in Mazatlán, Wendy Hardouin, said this season has been an exceptionally good one for tourists from Canada, adding that around 17,000 Canadians will have visited Mazatlán by the time the Canadian tourists return home around April 20.
The Consular Agent said she expects the 2014-2015 season to see even a greater number of Americans and Canadians spending their winter vacations in Mazatlán.
Wendy Hardouin said it is difficult to get an accurate count of the number of Canadian visiting the city, as they arrive not only by air, but land and sea, where obtaining accurate numbers is more difficult. The 17,000 number does not include those arriving in Mazatlán other than by air.
The Canadian Consular Agent also noted that the number of expatriates deciding to retire in Mazatlán is growing. She estimates the number of expatriates living in Mazatlán on a full time basis has increased 25 percent.
