Balearic Islands Plan Stricter Rules for Vapes and Energy Drinks – a Reality Check

Answer

Why is Santa Catalina often mentioned in discussions about sales checks in Mallorca?

Santa Catalina is mentioned because market-style sales and busy pedestrian areas raise practical questions about ID checks. If a stall or temporary vendor sells age-restricted products, enforcement becomes harder than in a regular shop. That is why the area is a useful example when talking about how Mallorca could implement tighter rules.
