On tv i saw the tourists go home and sprayed with water via water pistols- this upset me so i decided to ask people their thoughts in #alcudia old town on Market Day!!

When we were over in May there was some writing on one of the new beach bars in Alcudia saying ' Tourists go home '

Thanks Andrew - Unfortunately it is happening all over Spain both mainland and the islands. After 25 years of owning a property in Mallorca we're selling up. Post-Brexit, high taxes, high prices, poor weather and now the protests. Such a shame.

My parents remember Mallorca in the 60s and early 70s (under the General)...I'm surprised such a small minority want to go back there, I guess they'd have to leave the EU to stop legal migration. It appears Portugal is regretting its digital nomad visa system with increased property and rental prices...and Mallorca's just started doing their own digital nomad visas...

The airport of Mallorca is a disaster. Organization is not efficient. Airport itself not modern. Spain should have the money to give that airport a huge upgrade. Specially with all the tourist money. Mallorca itself is great. People are ok not too nice not too rude.
