Answer

How can tourists protect themselves from theft in busy parts of Mallorca?

Busy seaside areas in Mallorca can create easy opportunities for pickpockets and quick street thefts, especially when people are distracted. Keep valuables out of sight, stay alert when using your phone, and avoid carrying more cash than you need. A little extra caution is useful in crowded promenades, beach access points, and around bars at busy times.
