UK holidaymakers in tourist hotspots such as Majorca, Malaga and Tenerife have been warned to "get out" as a crackdown sparks protests across Spain.
A new campaign in Malaga has even seen posters telling tourists to "f*** *ff". Local citizens are said to be growing 'sick' of situations involving people being forced to vacate their homes and businesses in order to accommodate holidaymakers.
One bar owner, Dani Drunko told a local newspaper that he'd been ordered to vacate the property he rented, due to the owner failing to renew his rental contract - a move designed to benefit tourists instead.
The man told local publication Sur: "I live in a neighbourhood of Malaga called Fuente Olletas and was told a few weeks ago the owner wouldn't be renewing my rental contract.
"And I had to leave because the property was going to be readapted for tourist lets. Every day I'm receiving photos of new stickers and people that are making it go viral. There's a lot of movement because citizens are sick of the situation."
Birmingham Live reports that Magaluf is also changing its approach to tourists, focusing on "quality" over "quantity". The mayor said: "We've taken bold steps to crack down on what can only be described as the 'aggressive' sale of alcohol," explaining this includes happy hours, cheap booze, two-for-one deals, supermarket sales from 9.30pm to 8am, degrading party games and pub crawls.
Party boats are now also banned from selling alcohol on board.

"Yes, the cruises and boat trips can leave and enter Magaluf, but they are coastal trips so people can enjoy the scenery, the environment, a swim - to relax and make the most of their holiday experience," the mayor also said previously.
In Tenerife, graffiti has been spotted by the seaside with messages telling tourists to "go home". These slogans have been painted around the island's seafront with many British tourists catching a glimpse of them.
