Are there too many tourist in Spain? Today, there is an important debate whether there are a lot of tourist people in Mediterranean places and therefore a limitation should be set up by regional governments to protect the environment as well as to preserve the natural resources to future generations. Firstly, in some regions of Spain big resort were built in the seventies and eighteens of last century to attract tourist people in seek of sun and excellent weather not only in summer but also in winter. Droves of northern European people arrived at Mediterranean coastline to spend their retirement period or staying their holidays surrounded by gorgeous beaches in a safe country. Furthermore, local governments encourage to real estate developers to build wonderful villas close to the beaches. What is more, conflicts and war in northern African countries have reduced the places where to spend the holydays in a near destination. Having said that, some critic citizens have declared that there are too many tourists in Spain and some measure should be approved to reduce their number. However, being tourism he main source of income of local governments to finance their budgets it is no sense to reduce their number. In addition to this, lots of jobs are focus on tourism in those places, most of them occupied by unskilled workers. Also, there are hardly factories in certain places in Mediterranean coastline to find a job in case of being fired from their current job. All things considered, it appears that reducing the tourist people to preserve the environment has dire consequences in local economies of the people who depend on tourism to feed their families. It I important to bear in mind this key idea when local parliaments vote in favour of some acts to reduce the number of people who can stay in certain places.

Are there too many tourists in Spain?

Today, there is an important debate about the quantity of tourists in Mediterranean localities and whether a limit should be set by regional governments to protect the environment now as well as to preserve the natural beauty of the area for future generations.
Firstly, in some regions of Spain big resorts were built in the seventies and eighties of the last century to attract tourists in search of sun and excellent weather not only in the summer but also in the winter. Droves of Northern European people came to the Mediterranean coastline to spend their retirement or holidays at gorgeous beaches in a safe country. Furthermore, local governments encouraged real estate developers to build wonderful villas for these people close to the beach.
Moreover, conflicts and war in Northern African countries have effectively reduced the number of nearby places for Europeans to spend a holiday.
That said, some citizens have complained that there are too many tourists in Spain and have demanded that action should be taken to reduce their number.
However, since tourism is the major source of income for local governments, it makes no sense to restrict it. Additionally, many jobs  in these communities rely on tourism and most of them are occupied by unskilled workers. Where would these workers go? After all, there are hardly any factories along the Mediterranean coastline that are looking to hire new employees.
All things considered, it appears that restricting the quantity of tourists to preserve the environment would have dire consequences for local economies and for the people who depend on tourism to feed their families. It is important for local parliaments to keep these key facts in mind when they consider measures to reduce the number of people who can visit or stay in certain areas.
