Town dubbed the Mykonos ofSpainblasts disrespectful tourists as it joins calls for stricter controls on the industry [Video]

A MENORCA fishing village branded as Spain’s answer to the Greek island of Mykonos- due to its white buildings- has demanded measures to stop ‘disrespectful’ tourism during the summer.

An estimated 800,000 tourists walk through the streets of Binibeca Vell during the high season, taking photos at viewpoints during sunset, and then walking around the narrow streets well into the evening.

“They go inside houses, sit on the chairs, took things, step on the walls, have a drink… Well, there’s a little bit of everything, and if this is not regulated, it happens again every summer,” said a resident.
