More advice: part of the fun of visiting Mexico when you're a cigar smoker is getting a nice Cuban.
Don't buy your Cuban cigars from guys on the beach. This is a complete newfag mistake. He's going to sell you a fake Cohiba and it's going to taste like shit. Be wary of most cigar shops selling Cubans as well.
Instead, look for a place called "La Casa Del Habano." There are a few of these in touristy areas of Mexico (and throughout the world). They're licensed Cuban cigar dealers. Also, don't waste your money on Cohibas. They're excellent, of course, but if you're on a budget you can get a great smoke for way cheaper. I recommend Bolivars, personally, which tend to be a fraction of the price.
