IN PHOTOS | People protest against mass tourism in Spain's Canary Islands

Thousands of flag-waving demonstrators hit the streets across Spain's Canary Islands on Sunday to demand restrictions to the mass tourism they say is overwhelming their Atlantic archipelago.  The islands, which lie of the northwestern coast of Africa, are known for their volcanic landscapes and year-round sunshine that make them a popular destination for northern European sunseekers. Last year a record 16.2 million people visited the Canary Islands, a 10.9 percent increase over 2022 and more than seven times its population of some 2.2 million, a level demonstrators argue is unsustainable for the archipelago's limited resources.
