Angered by the inadequate government measures to manage the flow, locals across Spain staged hunger strikes, plastered visitor hotspots with anti-tourism messages, and squirted tourists with water guns.
One major impact is the spiralling cost of housing as accommodation is snapped up for tourist lets and land bought for building new resorts.
The government should find a way to protect the local economy from the influx of tourists that own property in Spain.
Thw government would need to be an actually democratic government for that to happen. But alas, they are all landlords.
