There will be a protest on La Herradura beach this morning, demonstrating against the excesses caused by some jet-ski users.

Previous Jet Ski Protests

It is hoped that visitors and tourist alike, both from La Herradura and Almuñécar will attend, to make the complaints reach the right quarters.

So, anybody who wants a quieter bay, without the noisy presence of illegal ski jets, or more accurately with the noise of jet-ski users breaking safety regulations, then please go to the meeting.

Also present will be the Ecologistas en Acción yacht, Diosa Maat, whose members will make their voice heard together with the visitors and residents of La Herradura.

Turn up in your car, on the bus, or even on a paddle-surf or a kayak from further along the bay. If you are lucky enough to have a sailing dinghy, yacht or any other craft, go along and lend your voice to the protest.

The event is organised by Bahía Tranquila, which is a protest platform made up of citizens of Almuñécar/La Herradura and which has no political affiliation.

So when and exactly where?

At ten o’clock in the morning organisers will be present, sorting everybody out and then at 11.00h those gathered will be addressed before setting off. Organisers will be handing out leaflets on what the platform hopes to achieve concerning restrictions on this kind of leisure craft. The meeting place is where there is a landing channel and beaching area for boats, which is up the Peña Parda end, we believe.
