Tourist Information - Spain

Spain is one of the safest countries in Europe.
The National Police Force works hard to make it that way but in order to achieve this, visiting tourists can help by observing certain safety precautions.

In General:
- Keep your belongings in sight
- Keep hold of your handbag and protect your wallet on public transports and in crowded areas (           street markets, shows, performances etc)
- Take care of your camera or video camera in amusement or recreation areas.
- Take only essentials when you go to the beach or a swimming pool
- If you are using a vehicle, lock any valuables out of sight.
- As far as possible, avoid isolated or badly lit places.
- Beware of supicious offers of "help" ("help" with stains on clothes, "problems" with your car, etc)    Thieves know how to use clever tricks to rob you.
- Do not take part in gambling or buy "bargains" in the street. It will nearly always be a confidence       trick or a swindle.

At Your hotel or flat:

- Do not leave keys , money or other valuables lying around. Make use of the safe.
- In communal areas(reception, restaurants, swimming pools) take care of your luggage and personal      belongings(hndbags, cameras, etrc)
