Brit holidaymakers vow never to visit Magaluf again after booze crackdown makes it 'boring'

British holidaymakers looking for cheap and cheerful fun in the sun has sworn that they'll never book up for Magaluf again, after strict drinking rules hit the once upon a time notorious party favourite hard. Rules to crack down on binge drinking were first brought to the Balearic Islands three years ago, with Ibiza's San Antonio also affected.

Originally scheduled to cover all of the Spanish islands, they were brought in to stop 'bad behaviour'. Announcing the measures, Balearic Islands Tourism Minister, Iago Negueruela, said that British Tourism was 'essential' but shared views that 'some images of British tourists are embarrassing'.

It prompted strict legislation to be put in place, and four years on, businesses and punters are still trying to adapt. While some hotels 'welcome' the forward-thinking move however, tourists who enjoy a good party have started citing that there is now 'zero attraction' in visiting Maga altogether.
