💨 Abstract
European destinations like Zakynthos, Barcelona, and Madrid are struggling with overtourism, leading to local discontent and environmental issues. Zakynthos, with 150 overnight stays per resident, tops the list of overtourism. Tourists complain about crowded beaches and over-commercialization. Experts suggest visiting lesser-known destinations like Logrono, Skopelos, Estepona, Naxos, and Tavira for a more authentic experience.
