The Balearic tourism of excesses law, limited as it is to areas of only four resorts - Arenal (Llucmajor), Magalluf, Playa de Palma and Sant Antoni - prohibits the retail sale of alcohol between the hours of 9.30pm and 8am. More than this, the bottles and cans have to be removed from view. If they weren't removed, the stores would have to close.

Make everything legal. Problem solved.
We have Discussed this problem on many occasions and it’s fine to pass all these laws but if you don’t have the resources to enforse the laws you can forget it , Mallorca has a winter season and a summer season and in the summer there are simply not enough Police to control all the illegal activities , Drugs , prostitution and Selling Illegaly in various places all over the show !!
