Palma Cuts Sunbeds — What Will Happen to Our Beaches?
Why Palma Is Cutting Back on Beach Loungers
Palma says its beaches have less space, so it is cutting back on sunbeds and changing beach zoning.
Published: April 22, 2026
Answer
Why is Palma reducing sunbeds on the beaches?
The main reason is that some beach areas have shrunk, so the city wants to adapt the layout of the sand. Reducing loungers is also meant to make room for new zoning rules, but it is only a partial response to a much bigger coastal issue.
