When the postcard crumbles: Tents at Can Pere Antoni and Palma's housing crisis
Why Tents Can Appear at Can Pere Antoni

Published: April 27, 2026

Answer
Why do tents sometimes appear on Can Pere Antoni beach in Palma?
Tents can appear there when people have no stable place to sleep and need a spot where they can keep their belongings during the day. Palma’s housing pressure, temporary work, high rents and limits in emergency support all play a role. The beach is visible, but for some people it is also one of the few practical places left.
