There are lots of things that budding travellers should be aware of
The Foreign Office has issued updated travel advice for Brits planning to jet off to Spain, Greece, Turkey or the Canary Islands.
Spain Spain offers something for everyone - golden beaches for sun-seekers, rich history for culture enthusiasts, and delectable cuisine for foodies. However, like any destination, there are certain things travellers should be mindful of.Terrorists are likely to attempt attacks in Spain. These attacks could be random, including in areas frequented by tourists.
The police can give you on-the-spot fines for a variety of driving offences including speeding. If you accept the fine and pay within 20 days, it will be reduced by 50%. More information on how to pay is available on the Spanish driving agency website.Some inner-city areas in Spain have introduced permanent low emission zones where Spanish vehicles must meet specific exhaust emission standards and display an air pollution sticker.
Greece The birthplace of democracy and boasting some of the most beautiful islands in Europe, Greece is one of the top destinations for Welsh visitors. These are all the issues you need to be aware of before you travel:Attacks could be indiscriminate, including in places frequented by foreigners. Demonstrations take place regularly around major squares in central Athens, in particular Syntagma Square. There is currently a heightened risk of demonstrations, particularly in central Athens, related to events in Israel and the Occupied Palestinian Territories. Nationwide strikes and protests can occur at any time and may disrupt road, air, sea travel and cause delays or diversions at border crossings.
Nitrous oxide is illegal to buy or sell for recreational use in Greece. You can be arrested or fined if found in possession.It's sometimes necessary to time stamp or validate your ticket on public transport for it to be valid. Check with local providers.Offensive items like pepper spray, knuckledusters or knives with a blade length of 10cm or above are listed as weapons in Greece and fall under the current weapon possession law.
Traffic can be busy, fast and chaotic, especially in the larger cities. Take care when crossing roads. Pedestrians should cross roads using a crossing. Drivers don't always stop, even though they are required to. The green pedestrian crossing signal sometimes also allows cars to turn right onto the crossing, so cross with caution.Adverse weather conditions, including floods, are affecting some regions. The situation can change quickly.
