People jetting off to Spain this summer are being warned over a common habit that could land them in hot water while on their holidays.
A crackdown is taking place on 28 beaches across the Balearic islands, including Mallorca and Ibiza, with residents and tourists alike now banned from smoking. The increase in "smoke-free zones" is part of a major plan to improve people's health and slash the huge problem of cigarette butts being left on the sand.
There are no fines for those who are caught lighting up as the people behind the scheme are hoping to appeal to members of the public's sense of responsibility, the Mirror reports.
