Smoking Law

I have been to Benidorm at the begining of Jan and the middle of April this year.
What I have found is that the majority if not all of the hotels do not allow smoking in public areas .
However I stayed at the Dalmatas and people were smoking around the pool area.
As for the bars and resturants I did not notice any difference and people were smoking, ash trays being available.

Hiya.
Yes, a National smoking law came into force in Spain on 1st Jan 2006.
We have had many discussions about this issue, not only in this forum, but also throughout the site.

I will just pick up on one point.....
Yes, it is illegal to smoke, eat, drink or use your phone whilst driving in Spain now....
