Fines for drinking alcohol in Spain

It is reported that in some cities in Spain, tourists can be fined up to EUR 600 for drinking alcohol on the street. It is also illegal to drink alcohol in other public places, including beaches.

Tourists can also be fined a larger amount if public drinking disrupts public order or causes harm to others.

The popular Balearic Islands, including Magaluf, Mallorca, Playa de Palma, Majorca and Ibiza, have special local laws. They restrict the sale and availability of alcohol in certain areas.
