The exercise rules, published in the government’s BOE, are:
Only one adult can go with children
Only one hour a day
Only once per day
Only one kilometre from the home
A maximum of three kids are allowed out with an adult
Journeys are only permitted between 9am and 9pm
A two-metre distance must be maintained with others
Children can take toys
They can’t play with other children
Playgrounds are off-limits

However, so far during Spain’s coronavirus lockdown, penalties for those flouting the rules have generally been in the €601 range.
Although, fines for specific offences can be more than doubled to €1,500 depending on the circumstances.
HOW MUCH CAN PEOPLE BE FINED?
Legálitas gave the following examples of fines:
Breaking curfew – Leaving the house with children outside the specified hours (9am-9pm) could land you with a €601 fine
Too many kids – Taking more than three children out at once could see you fined €601
Swings and roundabouts – Going on playgrounds carries a minimum €601 penalty
Chewing the fat – Congregating and chatting with other adults and children or walking with other groups is considered more serious and could see you fined €1,500
Size matters – Going further than the recommended one kilometre from home could see you handed a €601 fine, with the amount potentially increasing for those who are even further away

It does say that the "draconian" lockdown to ease.
I see no issue with a draconian lockdown.
Fines a definite answer

I'd imagine a few fined in almaria today then? Saw pics of people in large groups,posted by a pissed off resident.seems there are idiots everywhere still!! The fines here are a complete farce! Community service at a hospital would be more beneficial to the country,as most of these people don't work,so won't pay the fine anyway,meaning a court appearance, again costing the tax payer! They should be benefiting society,not burdening us.
