Holiday makers planning to absorb the sun in Spain this summer are advised to be aware of where they vape. One solid insurance expert has warned 5.6 million British people vapeing about the potential legal consequences of vaping on Spanish beaches.
Known for its budget-friendly holidays and beautiful coastlines, Spain has introduced new laws banning vaping on many public beaches. Those who fled the rules could face a fine of up to £1,600 (€1,900).
In contrast, the UK does not impose restrictions on vaping in public spaces, and decisions remain on individual businesses and venue owners, generally allowed for outdoor events. However, this is not the case in Spain. In Spain, public beaches are designated as non-expandable zones.
Experts “urge Brits to become familiar with regulations before traveling abroad to avoid fines and penalties.” They added that some countries, including popular destinations like France, have banned vaping following the Belgian lead.
So, relaxing on the beach with a vampire might be fascinating, but breaking these rules can result in heavy fines. Spain has implemented stricter rules regarding vaping in public places, including many beaches, due to public health and environmental concerns.
Proven insurance provides important advice to travelers who want to bring their vapes on holiday, urging them to check local regulations before they leave. The expert said, “Certain countries also ban the sale of flavorful steam from the Netherlands and other places.
“For those planning on enjoying e-cigarettes in the sun, it is important to be informed of local laws, especially in countries like Spain where vaping is prohibited on certain beaches. Before traveling, we recommend consulting government resources for your destination and consulting with current regulations.
