LIFE’S A BEACH!!

that we don’t get sand blasted on a windy day on the beach, and so I could go on.

Mijas would be a ghost town without it’s tourism and ‘Sun, Sea, and Sangria’ is more than just an alliteration, it is an expectation for the many holidaymakers.

So, why has Mijas spent millions promoting itself as a tourist destination and at the same time refused to address the perennial issue of the disappearing beaches whilst our municipal neighbours are shouting very loudly about it? Maybe it has something to do with the fact that Mijas and Madrid wear the same political colours and Mijas won’t place demands on Madrid for fear of a negative response.

Now I know what you are going to say: another storm after the Easter top up, and we want the beaches back for the summer.

Many of the coastal municipalities are trying to find a more satisfactory solution such as Benalmadena, Fuengirola, and Marbella, but Mijas just prefers to keep bringing treated river sand to the beaches a couple of times a year.
