Frisky vacationers on Ibiza’s famed Es Cavallet nude beach are causing major damage to the coastline’s protected sand dunes, and environmentalists have had enough.
The large beach has a popular gay section near the almost exclusively gay Chiringay restaurant and bar. Behind the beach are the island’s iconic dunes, which have become an unofficial cruising ground.
Now geologists and biologists claim all that rumbling in the dunes’ bushes is doing serious irreversible damage to the area, which is part of Sea Salines Natural Park.

They say the action is “degrading” the dunes, ruining a unique feature of the island’s geological system.
Local paper Diario de Mallorca reports that the protected areas have been fenced off in response to the behavior, but if there’s one thing that can be said of guys looking to hook up it’s that they’re tenacious.
They’ve simply been jumping over the fence to access the dunes.
This is why we can’t have nice things.

Sluts ruin everything.

So bloody true. ??

“They’re degrading the sand dunes.”
“How?”
“. . . morally.”
Brian
Yeah, exactly. The only reports of this come from hyper-conservative fake news websites. (This just isn’t how geology works.) It’s irresponsible for Queerty to repost it.
Chrisk
@Brian. Well now I got all my facts wrong. I thought they were pro environmental damage.

I when enough people move through the bushes, even if they’re not having sex, it can eventually wear down the dunes & plants. It’s about quantity not just quality.

Trumping around wears down vegetation, soil and sand

Oh please! Queerty, what a shame you are advancing this narrative.
MrKWalker68
Please stop wrecking things for everyone. Keep to your sex clubs and not in public. No wonder the bloody Conservative Movement (and even the general public) has so much against us.

Fences don’t work?! ?

I’m not going to believe this report until Sean Hanaity talks about it………………………………………………………………I know hes into hard hitting journalism.
Besides sex on the beach? So uncomfortable.

Why is it so wrong to have sex outdoors? ALL other animals do it. Why can’t we? It is our bond, our connection to nature that makes us human. God is in nature. And to have sex in a natural environment puts us near God.
Trekbike
I totally agree with you, except for the god part. I hit every nude beach I can find, including gay naked resorts. I love outdoor sex as well. Let hand out and enjoy the weather.
Billy Budd
I was being nasty by putting God in the equation. Just for shock value.
PinkoOfTheGange
It is the other people not ()od that are the law’s concern.

How about don’t be a whore and just go get a room!?!

“The sex is said to be disturbing fragile plants on the sand vital for the environment — which are being uprooted.
The ground is then hit by the wind, destroying the dunes.” The Sun
This is like 7 grade ecology, at least in SoCal, stuff.
nitejonboy
Just like a bunch of whores to give us a bad name and ruin the environment…get a damn room and have some frigging dignity!!
Rock-N-RollHS
Shouldn’t the headline read “enhancing” one of the most beautiful gay beaches!
LetsGetLit
Sometimes I wonder why they named a drink after it.
ShowMeGuy
People need to pick up their own used condoms. Oh, wait, that isn’t what they’re talking about.

Perfectly said and so true: “This is why we can’t have nice things.”
