Anti-tourism activists put up FAKE closure signs at Majorca beaches

Anti-tourism activists across Spain have put up fake beach closure signs and blocked traffic with go-slow walks in their latest attempts to dissuade holidaymakers from visiting.

The Caterva protest group put up red tape and 'Beach Closed' signs at several coves in Manacor, eastern Majorca on Saturday to stop tourists from lounging.

The group said it blocked off the coves for 'residents' use and iconwin rest', arguing in a social media post that it is time to 'change course and prioritise life'.

In a separate action, nearly 850 miles away, residents in the municipality of Cangas do Morrazo, Galicia caused traffic chaos by walking back and forth across its zebra crossings in a half-hour demo to prevent visitors from reaching the coast.

The separately-organised protests just the latest wave of campaigns targeting tourists.
