Services on Alcudia s beaches will resume on May 1. As with last year, when the beaches became the first in Spain to be given a Covid-free certification, the town hall intends operating with a
reduced number of sunloungers and parasols. There will be eight-metre distancing between sunlounger sets and ten-metre wide health corridors for accessing the sea.
Since the start of February, municipal workers have been preparing the sunloungers and parasols, carrying out repairs and painting. In all, there are 4,000 sunloungers and 2,000 parasols, but only a quarter of these will initially be available. In 2020, no more than
a third of the stock was put out.
