While there has been talk that tourist numbers this year could exceed those of 2019, foreign tourist numbers in the Balearics continue to be below those for 2019. Britain was on pole position in July with one-in-four tourists being from the United Kingdom.
Majorca tourism
British tourism ruled supreme in the Balearics in July (don't tell the Germans!!!)
More Britons came on holiday to the islands than Germans!
Also in Holiday

If a political party could only "reign supreme" with 27% of the votes in an election (or referendum?). Wouldn't that be special? But I reckon that's not unusual for Britain. Ending up 2nd or 3rd or 4th is often promoted as "victory", often over an imaginary "competitor", who don't even know they're competing. Or care. I suppose it's like the yanks. They always win the "World Series". Clueless foreigners. That's why they lost. They always do.
The videos the MDB publishes, the comments on TripAdvisor, it certainly appears Magaluf is rather light on traffic this year. While the rest of the island is heaving. Outside the few British resorts, it's very rare to hear a British voice. So where are all these world beating Brits going? Or is it that everybody else combined makes it hard to find them? Oh, and it's only a competition if both teams believe they're in a game. In this case, only one thinks it is.
