Spanish beach resorts' new plans to prevent coronavirus - from booking slots and light sensors to parasol 'zones'
POPULAR Spanish beaches are introducing new measures and systems ahead of the summer season to stop the spread of coronavirus following the government announcement that they will be able to open by the end of the month.
The government is leaving the autonomous communities to make their own arrangements over how to deal with the re-opening and how to cope with the big influx of people and social distancing.The only general rules set include keeping couples or groups at least two metres apart or to find some other physical protection measure if this is not possible.All personal objects, such as towels, must remain within the established two-metre space, avoiding contact with other users.
