The town of Sant Llorenç des Cardassar, located in the northeast of Mallorca, a traditional 16th-century Mallorcan village just a few kilometres from Manacor, is the most overcrowded tourist destination in Spain, with a staggering 73.1 tourists per inhabitant. The town leads the tourist overcrowding ranking drawn up by the Holidu rental portal, which also highlights other locations such as Peñíscola in Valencia and Salou in Catalonia. The latter receives almost 1.3 million visitors a year, which corresponds to almost 50 tourists per inhabitant.

clare cairnsYes, Clare, I'm well aware of that. I lived in that area for years. Most Brits aren't aware though, since it's commonly known that outside of Calvia is just barren wasteland - a kind of "no go" zone for Britons (with the exception of Calas de Mallorca perhaps). And being that Brits are overwhelmingly the dominant tourists here (a whopping 18%!) it seems inconceivable that there could be anything resembling "tourist overcrowding" in some outback uncharted wilderness where nobody goes. But then, it does beg the question of where the other 82% go. They can't all be in Arenal.
Morgan WilliamsCapdepera isn't in Calviá it is near Cala Rajada.
S L d C overcrowded with Tourists !! WHY ? There is nothing there !!!.
Isn't this in the uncharted wilderness outside of Calvia? How could it be "overcrowded"?
