Along with the mass return of tourists to Mediterranean resorts, the main problems that tourists bring to each other and others have returned. The “war for sunbeds” has started again on the beaches of the most popular resorts in Europe – tourists are shooting videos one after another, like crazy vacationers at six o’clock in the morning “break” to the beach to take sunbeds on the best place, throw a towel and leave. And others later take off these towels and take the sunbeds for themselves … a real war in place under the sun.
“Typical vacation in Spain,” – signed a video from Mallorca, one of the tourists. According to her comment, the “crazy” wars for sunbeds start every day at six in the morning – and tourists move literally in crowds, laying out towels and beach bags in the best places to be sure they have taken their place.
The video received over a thousand likes and many comments. There are also sympathizers for the fighters for sunbeds: “My dad always got up at 7 am and did it,” – says one tourist. But most commentators are very puzzled by the “fighters”. “I never understood why people go on vacation so much,” “It’s a kind of arbitrariness,” tourists write.
By the way, “fighters with fighters” also stood out – that is, those who occupy already occupied deckchairs, often throwing away the left things. “As soon as they leave, I will take off my towels and take a deck chair. Be where you are, or go, ”one of the tourists is indignant.
Tour operators, by the way, are trying to combat this by introducing the practice of booking sunbeds in advance – and it is in demand. Although many have booked, do not refuse to try to break into more trump cards.
There were “wars for sunbeds” and “victims”. One tourist said, for example, that he broke his finger during such a morning race. However, there is a possibility that the entire tanning industry and the sunbeds themselves may fall victim to the new fashion for a healthy lifestyle – after sugar and fat, tanning can be considered deadly.
A ban on sunbeds on the beaches – said researchers from the University of Manchester – could save at least 200 thousand young tourists from skin problems – up to fatal. The team conducted research, in particular, in Australia, where sunbeds on the beaches are already banned. Note that on the southern continent, on average, the sun is extremely active and skin cancer is a national problem. “A study of tanning-related health problems shows that banning sunbeds could reduce the number of people with skin problems by 200,000.” And we are talking, in particular, about skin cancer, which often develops in young people, “- said the study authors.
