Coastal law under scrutiny: protection or a quiet free pass for beach bars?

Answer

Does protecting coastal structures in Mallorca mean the area becomes private?

It should not. On Mallorca, many coastal areas are public by law, so protection status must not be used to block public access. Any decision should keep access rights and local use in mind, especially where the coast is part of everyday life.
