MADRID: All Spanish beaches reopened on Monday with the exception of Barcelona, and the Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao will unlock its doors for the first time in months as Spain took steps to revive a tourist industry brought to a halt by COVID-19.
"It's not a question of being the first in reopening but to reopen knowing we guarantee the health not only of residents but also of visitors," Industry and Tourism Minister Reyes Maroto told Telecinco TV.
