A rescue ship belonging to Salvamento Marítimo towed a damaged yacht into Motril Port in the early hours of today.
The decision by the Motril Town Council to reject a call to make swimming where there is a red flag flying forbidden has drawn criticism.
Salvamento Marítimo rescued 52 people, 11 of whom were women, all cramped into a zodiac-type dingy 36 miles of the coast of Granada on Good Friday. It was to be a busy Easter weekend.
