Mallorca is one of the most popular holiday destinations for Germans.
Now a trip there should be even more attractive - because almost all Corona rules are no longer applicable.
The Balearic government overturns almost all other Corona provisions on Mallorca * and the other islands of Menorca, Ibiza and Formentera.
The easing will apply from March 1st with the publication in the Official Journal.
Mallorca overturns almost all corona measures - what still applies
Only a few rules remain in place: On the one hand, the
mask requirement indoors
, on the other hand, the
smoking ban in the outdoor areas of restaurants
.
The Mallorca Zeitung
reports that smoking should still not be allowed on the open street if a minimum distance of two meters from other people is not possible
.
However, all other restrictions affecting nightlife and cultural and sporting events should be lifted.
Many corona measures have already been abolished in the Balearic Islands in recent weeks - there has been no 3G requirement for access to restaurants or fitness studios since February 12th.
