UK tourists 'calling off' Spain holidays and plan to 'give them a miss'

Tourists are calling off trips to Spanish holiday hotspots - and taking to lesser-known Spain - as British visitors face a summer of protests. Smaller Spanish cities such as Toledo are increasing in popularity as more people give the coasts a miss. Tourists in Spain are increasingly turning away from popular “sun and seaside” resorts, a Spanish government source has told The i Paper. Holiday resorts such as the Canary Islands and Balearic Islands, the Costa del Sol and Costa Blanca, remain popular, but tourists are increasingly looking for hidden Spain, according to the newspaper, amid the growing wave of protests around overtourism.
