Holidaymakers face fines of £90 from the start of next week if they are caught on the street without their noses and mouths covered. Everyone over the age of six has to comply, unless they suffer health problems or are playing sport. Beaches and pools have been exempted, meaning Brits won’t be heading back home with tan lines on their faces. Regional government spokeswoman Pilar Costa confirmed on Friday people would be given warnings initially before fines start to be handed out. The Confederation of Business Associations of the Balearic Islands (CAEB) has warned it could spell disaster for tourism in the region.
