Beaches in Palma nova and Magalluf will open Monday 25th May, 2 weeks early, with Mallorca having no corona virus cases, they have already started putting up umbrellas on the beaches already.
This is what the guidelines are going to be to start off opening the beaches, the Beach capacity both for areas with sunloungers and without is having to be defined. The plan is for there to be a 4.4 metre distance between sunlounger sets, while a distance between people in "free" zones (i.e. where there are no sunloungers) is being considered. This will have to bear in mind family groups.
It has yet to be decided how the spacing for social distancing is to be marked. This will have to avoid there being excessive obstacles to the daily cleaning of beaches. The frequency of disinfection of the likes of sunloungers, showers, walkways is a further factor that is being considered.
There is now added urgency in implementing the plan. Under the de-escalation programme, beaches were to have been opened in Phase 3, which is from 8 June. This has been amended, so beaches can open in Phase 2, and Majorca is likely to move to Phase 2 this coming Monday. — with Mallo Cardiff.
