This comes after the country has complained about overcrowding and a lack of affordable housing in tourist hotspots, with 94 million tourists visiting the country in 2024.

Several protests have been held in tourist hotspots such as Barcelona and Tenerife and, as a result, guidelines have been put in place by local authorities for tourists to abide by.

The first rule is that the tourist tax will be increasing in the Balearic Islands and Barcelona. In Mallorca, Menorca, Ibiza and Formentera, overnight tourist charges could rise from £3.36 to £5.04 per person per night. Rates will vary depending on the quality of accommodation, with guests at four and five-star hotels paying the most in the months of June, July and August.

In Barcelona, the tourist tax is set to double with a maximum of £12.40 per person per night.

The second rule is that damaged 50 euro notes will not be accepted as the central bank are trying to withdraw damaged currency from circulation to avoid fraud.

Thirdly, in Gran Canaria, a set of rules have been put in place for what can't be done on a public beach such as cooking or using an umbrella. If these rules are broken, tourists could be fined £2,500.

Walking tours in the Mallorcan capital Palma will be limited to a group of 20 and a resident's only restriction on cars will be put in place in Sóller, Mallorca.

In January this year, a law in Malaga, Alicante, Madrid and Seville was set where no new holiday rentals can be registered across 43 districts in the area.

Lastly, in Llucmajor, Palma, Magaluf in Mallorca and Sant Antoni in Ibiza, a drinking ban has been imposed where alcoholic beverages can't be purchased from 9.30pm to 8am the next day and drinking on public roads will also be forbidden at these times.
