The authorities in the Balearic Islands banned the sale of alcohol after 8.30pm because of tourists having sex in the street and break the law, reported the Daily Mail.
Popular resorts in Europe have also tightened the rules on drinking alcohol on the street and have already started fining people for it. Such changes are the result of long days of protests by local residents against tourists who “spoil the reputation of the islands”.
Earlier it was reported that British tourists had started to leave Spain's Canary Islands due to discontent over protests against tourism and visa restrictions. Vacationers were offended that according to the new EU rules, they can stay on the European islands for no more than 90 days.
Recently, the inhabitants of the Canary and Balearic Islands have repeatedly expressed dissatisfaction with the consequences of mass tourism. So they went on hunger strike in Tenerife in protest. According to the protesters, tourism is destroying the island, polluting the sea and increasing housing prices.
