Spanish officals have issued a travel warning to holidaymakers as a new rule is rolled out across 28 tourist hotspots. People have been banned from smoking on 28 beaches on the Balearic Islands.
And some beaches in popular destinations such as Majorca, Ibiza and Menorca will be implementing the new smoking ban, reports the Mirror. Now, tourists have been warned about the increase in "smoke-free zones" as part of a major plan by the Balearic Islands to improve people's health and slash the litter problem of cigarette butts being left on the sand.
But it's important to note that people won't be fined if they are caught breaking the rules. Instead, officials are hoping to appeal to tourists' sense of responsibility to follow the new national advice.
