Does only one beach site actually work?
I have two tourist areas and four hotels. I built two beach areas, but only one had any visitors, so I demolished the second and replaced it with villas. What, if anything, makes a second beach site work?

Also, the game requires a museum for the NatGeo special, I built the only museum listed (Presidente's childhood home) but it still says I need a museum! What gives? I can't find another listed!

RE: Does only one beach site actually work?
There is no reason to build a second beach site unless the first one is consistently full. If given the choice of two beach sites, Tropicans will take the one with the higher service quality. The one noone was visiting probably had workers that were less skilled and therefore had lower service quality.

Alternatively, if you are going to build two beach sites, you can set one to have a dress code, which will raise its service quality and only allow the wealthier tourists to visit. You should also raise the fee on this one to the spending limit of the wealthier tourists. In the other one, you can have no dress code and a lower fee for the cheaper tourists.

My first act as El Presidente... Throw the Radio DJ off an oil platform with his feet in cement.

I'm not 100% sure but you might need a TV station as well.

I've had two and both got visitors. In order to get visitors though, there had to be practically nothing else on the island for people to do. XD

In T1 yes...but T3? There is no building that I can see that is meant to attach to the pyramid, nothing listed in any of the menus.

I tried starting it with an upscale dc and still nothing. My zoo is also bupkus for visitors, is that because I have too many other amenities?

Actually there is, in the same tab as the one where you can buy upgrades for your factory, by selecting your mayan piramid you can either build an excavation site (getting money for your swiss bank account) or a museum for tourists.

He means click on the pyramid itself and choose the left option. Make sure it has road access and a garage, its a good money maker but is usually away from the city and will eat up a lot of time getting to without cars.
