Emptier sunbeds, growing worries: How is Mallorca reacting to more frugal beachgoers?

Answer

Why are beach bars and rental companies in Mallorca worried about lower spending?

Beach bars and rental companies depend on steady daily turnover, so even a small drop in visitors spending less can hurt quickly. They still have fixed costs such as licenses, staff, insurance, and equipment, which do not fall when bookings do. That makes quieter weeks much more difficult for small businesses along Mallorca’s coast.
