Masking

Do not use soap or shampoo

However, doing it overnight is completely forbidden and in areas like Valencia, you can be fined 1,500 euros. Camping on the beach is also against the law and can result in the payment of the same fee.

Keep your kit

Although popular all over Europe, if you go naked on a beach without nudists, expect to be hit with a strict dress and a fine of up to 750 euros.

No barbecue
