Mini Tsunami Hits Mallorca and Menorca

by Loraine Gostling

Reports came in a couple of hours ago of a mini-tsunami which has hit tourist beaches in parts of Majorca and Menorca.

A 5ft-high wave smashed into Ciutadella on the west coast of Menorca early this morning and nearby beaches were flooded.

The freak weather phenomenon also affected holiday resorts in Majorca, with seawater flooding bars and terraces by the coast in Andratx and covering beachside roads.

Footage above shows water surging across roads in Alcudia in the north of Majorca, flooding under picnic benches and racing towards cars.

“Everyone” will be pleased to know that the Love Island house is safe and well  😉
