Can poor lifeguard conditions affect beach safety in Mallorca?

Yes. If lifeguards are undertrained, understaffed or working under unstable conditions, response times and vigilance can suffer. Even small staffing gaps can matter when conditions change quickly on the coast, especially at busy beaches in Mallorca.
