A group of Spanish protesters is trying to keep British tourists away from prime beach locations with fake signs warning of sewage in the water, falling rocks, and dangerous jellyfish.
Another of the signs has the words ‘Beach Closed’ in English in large text with a no swimming sign - but just underneath in the local Catalan dialect the sign reads ‘Platja Oberta’ - or ‘Beach Open’.
The protesters shared images of the signs online as part of a “denunciation” of mass tourism in the area.“We carried out a denunciation action against mass tourism in the coves of Manacor. With a bit of humor, we've put up a few posters that you can see in the photos. From Cala Morlanda to Cala Bota.
The signs sparked copycat posters from other Spanish people with one person posting their own mocked up image for people to use to try and keep others off the beaches. One Spanish social media user posted a fake ‘beach closed’ sign, for people to print off and use, writing: “I think that Galicians need a break. Here I leave you a gift, if you want more you can do it yourself!”
