Don't let it ruin your holiday
The move aims to combat antisocial behaviour and improve the safety of tourists and residents. The measures will be introduced in the city of Palma on the island of Majorca which is a popular summer destination for holidaymakers.
Local police will begin the crackdown operation from Bank Holiday Monday and it will run for more than five months until October 15. It comes as many Spanish tourist spots have been cracking down on boozy Brits and tourists, reports Majorca Daily Bulletin.A campaign has also been launched to combat excessive tourism, aimed at reminding shopkeepers in key areas of the current regulations of the Law on Excesses in relation to the sale of alcoholic beverages.
The council said some of the main problems are illegal massages, street vending, street drinking and pub crawls and noise pollution. Fines range from 100 euros for minor infractions to 3,000 euros for serious ones. Many holidaymakers choose to book all-inclusive so they can day drink and continue their shenanigans into the night at party destinations. But now, Brits will be restricted to just six drinks a day, which can only be accessed alongside their lunch and dinner - offering them three drinks per meal.
The rule has been enforced in Magaluf, Majorca, and some areas of Ibiza, causing upset to Brits who were expecting to drink by the pool.
