Hello, I live on the island of Mallorca, Spain and fly here regularly without any issues. I'm a registered pilot, have a license and everything.
In december I want to visit Benidorm, it has one of the tallest buildings in Spain and in general pretty nice place (have been there before).
But I'm worried about the legality of flying in such a place, it is a Fly Zone and doesn't have any No Fly Zones nearby but big buildings and streets is it okay to fly over them?
I saw many drone videos on YouTube of Benidorm and all of them seem to break at least one law, of course it's not my intention and I will try to not break any law.

This is the place on Google Maps: Benidorm · Alicante, Spain

Anyone has experience in flying there?
 
I would simply contact the AESA and ask them - their answer will be more valuable than anyone here:

As a frequent traveler, I always contact the relevant agency of the country I am going to and ensure that I am not misunderstanding any rules, and I typically find them very responsive & helpful. I have no personal experience in Spain though.
