Palma is anticipating a bustling maritime influx as 51 cruise ships this April, carrying approximately 100,000 tourists, marking a notable increase of 24.39 percent compared to the same month last year. This surge reflects the ongoing reorganisation efforts in the third year of collaboration between the Government and shipping companies. These planned stopovers, forecast by the Balearic Port Authority (APB), mark the beginning of the tourist season.

So a 25% increase on last year? One hundred thousand cruise visitors in April? My heart sinks when I read such numbers. Has abominable greed taken hold and/or blind ignorance of the impact on Palma’s residents, infrastructure and environment? I’m not saying no cruise ships. Palma is a leading Mediterranean port. But this just sounds like it’s getting out of control.
