Huge protests have broken out in the Canary Islands against what locals see as over-tourism (Image: Getty ) Bosses at holiday giant TUI have announced they will "tackle the issue head-on" of locals protesting against over-tourism in the Canary Islands by investing in residential housing. Huge demonstrations from natives angry at a lack of housing have broken out in recent weeks, in the holiday hotspot of Tenerife 120,000 took to the streets to voice their anger at accommodation being snapped up by tourists. And in Majorca, in the Balearic Islands, more marched against tourism, with many islanders openly calling for expats and visitors to go home.
Many islanders are incensed at what they feel is a lack of provision for locals in terms of housing, which they claim has been taken over by tourists, and that local authorities are more interested in allowing new hotels to be built instead of homes for residents. function loadOvpScript(){let el=document.createElement('script');el.
