You have to deal with the local customs in Peru and how the people
there would deal with a photographer taking pictures of them. I
suspect, though, that you would be almost unnoticed unless you got
right up in their faces.
You don't have to take close-up photographs of people to include
people in your shots. In a beach scene, figures that are not facing
the camera can be interesting. The back of a child, for example,
playing in the sand with the waves in the background. What you do
need to do is personalize your photos by getting close enough that
every subject in the photo contributes to the image.
When you frame the photo as you take it, consider what you want the
photo to show. In this case, if you thought about it, you would not
want to show a parking lot or group of ordinary automobiles. The
scene is a beach, and the sand, the water, the waves, and the people
are what makes that type of photo interesting.
