Answer

What can Mallorca authorities do if a beach access issue is suspected?

The Balearic government and local municipality can investigate, check concessions and, if needed, impose fines or other sanctions. In serious cases, repeated violations could even affect a beach concession. These cases can be difficult to prove, which is why inspections and documentation are so important.
