The seven things we do at the beach that are actually prohibited

Not everyone knows or respects these rules, but they are essential for protecting the environment, ensuring safety, and promoting harmony among beachgoers.

In Spain, all beaches are governed by the Coastal Law, which contains regulations for safety and environmental protection. These regulations vary from state to state, but some of the most common prohibited activities include:

• Driving on the beach
• Camping overnight
• Littering
• Using fireworks
• Bringing pets
• Swimming in restricted areas
• Fishing without a license

Violating these regulations can result in fines or even arrest. So before you head to the beach, be sure to check with your local authorities to find out what the rules are.

By following the rules, we can all help to keep our beaches clean, safe, and enjoyable for everyone.
