Panic in Majorca as Brits abandon island for Egypt, Malta and Tunisia

Majorca’s popularity may be dwindling as an increasing number of tourists opt for Egypt, Tunisia, and Malta instead of the Spanish island. Pedro Fiol, the president of Aviba, the Association of Balearic Travel Agents, said Egypt has emerged as a top choice for British travelers due to its affordability. This shift has prompted a decrease in visitors to Majorca, marking the first decline since 2022, mainly attributed to overtourism protests that have plagued the island. As Brits abandon Majorca for alternative destinations like Egypt, Malta, and Tunisia, the future of tourism on the Spanish island remains uncertain.
