The name isn't the problem... It's the continual downgrading of the quality and range of businesses. There used to be more restaurants than bars in the Punta Ballena. Now, I can only think of a single restaurant. There used to be a bowling alley and games arcades for kids, no more. The place is full of strip clubs, tattooists and bars that flood the street with PRs encouraging all the behaviours that the Punta Ballena has become infamous for. Close down all the 'sports' bars and strip clubs, most of the tattoo parlours, make 'closing time 2pm and get some police on the ground.
A very difficult operation to remove the bad stigma associated with Magaluf. Now is the time to correct its disgraceful image and reputation throughout the world. Many attempts have been made to bring the Urbanisation up to a more respectable town. Unless there is a complete change of all the bars and businesses and poor Hotels throughout the whole catchment area, then its reputation will remain.
