Despite the regional directive handed down by the Junta de Andalucía to close beaches from 21.30h each evening, the Costa Tropical will not be changing anything.
The Blue Zones along Almuñécar’s and La Herradura’s seafront paseos were deactivated yesterday, the 1st of September.
The Almuñécar fire service was called out on the 22nd of last month to where a car had left the road near an urbanización on Cerro Gordo, La Herradura.
The pandemic has delayed many maintenance tasks around Almuñécar, one of which is strimming rural lanes, which at last is under way.
The annual Blues Festival that is held in the castle/fortress of La Herradura in August has been blown out by the new Covid-19 restrictions.
One of the most popular beaches in La Herradura is probably its most secluded one; La Playa de Marina de Este with its excellent chiringuito; parking is another matter.
With the elevated temperatures typical of August last weekend, Almuñécar had a massive beach turn out, as can be expected.
