Spain is one of the safest countries in Europe.
The National Police Force is working to ensure that this is the case, but in order to achieve this, it is necessary for tourists who visit us to collaborate by observing the following preventive safety tips.
As a general rule:
Keep your belongings in sight at all times.
Protect your bag or wallet on public transport and in large crowds (markets, shows, etc.).
Pay attention to your camera or video camera in recreational areas.
When you go to the beach or pool, take only the essentials.
If you use a vehicle, do not leave valuables or conspicuous objects in plain view.
As far as possible, try not to walk in lonely or poorly lit places.
Be wary of suspicious "help" (notice of stains on your clothes, damage to your car, etc.). They are usually a ploy to rob you.
On the street, do not engage in gambling or accept "bargains". They are bound to be a scam or a rip-off.
In the hotel or flat
Do not leave keys, money or valuables in your room. Use the safety deposit boxes.
In the common areas (reception, restaurants, swimming pool), keep an eye on your luggage and personal belongings (bags, cameras, etc.).
Your SAFETY MATTERS to us!
If you are a victim of a crime, ask for help by calling 091 (Police) or report it on 902 102 112 (Multilingual service).
