Majorca Mallorca20 Jul 2020

The Pantomime Baddy, Magaluf explored.

After recent events in Magaluf, Oliver (Ollie) and Vicki, decide that Episode 2 probably should look at what the actual heck is going on in this tiny slice of Mallorca, aka Magaluf, aka Calvia Beach... Maga, a long time target for derision by the British press. has hit the headlines yet again recently due to the enthusiastic, after hours activities of some young people. The video recording of these events has lead to the subsequent closure of the area, Punta Ballena meaning that local businesses cannot make a living and tourists are being let down....

Was the closure justified or could it have been avoided? What is the future for this controversial resort in Mallorca?

Vicki and Ollie discuss this with special guest Richie Prior from Pirates Adventure and Radio One Mallorca. You can read Richie's blog on https://somethingforyourmallorcaweekend.wordpress.com/
