Opinion Jose Luis García: "Lamentable state of the beach Punta de Els Molins"

Dear friends,

I am writing to your website to comment on the unfortunate state of the beaches of Denia this month of August and in particular in the area of ​​the Punta dels Molins After the storm last week. After going to the City of Denia in writing twice to express this problem I have not gotten any response.

Complained our current mayor, Mr. Vicente Grimalt along with Mrs. Cristina Morena of the state of the beaches of Denia in an article published on his website on July 7 of 2014. "We can not sell Dénia as a tourist city when one of our biggest attractions, such as beaches, are in a sorry state".

I invite you to take a walk in the Punta dels Molins Where you can see the unfortunate state of putrefaction and odors that we have on the beach despite what these days was reported by press and radio that the beach had been restored and algae had been eliminated.

It is true that an area of ​​this beach has been partially restored these days, but just across the pier in front of the La Cova del Mero Restaurant And the surrounding urbanizations for more than a week have not cleared the huge accumulations of algae.

This is an area rich in Poseidonias and therefore requires more maintenance, but this year in August, the month of more influx of people, have hardly passed the machines once in this area that told them to remove the algae.

I have an apartment in property in Dénia more than 25 years in front of this area and I assure you that the beach has not been so poorly maintained ever. In addition to the algae, as a consequence not of this but of the previous great spring season in which they were caused great damages, the sand of this zone that always had been quite acceptable, today is a set of chinarros reason why to walk barefoot is done Difficult and nothing has been done to fix this problem.

The dunes that artificially created a few years ago (at least 25 years ago did not exist, I have photos that prove it) and supposedly protect us, are nowadays a place of accumulation of garbage for which cleaning employees never deign to Pass, since through the bushes you have to walk and collect the trash by hand.

It seems that the neighbors of this area of ​​Les Marines, already distant to 5 Km of the town we are only neighbors to pay the taxes but not to take care of our zone of bath.

Please let someone report what is happening this summer, which is nothing other than the lack of means of beach cleaning or poor management of the same, to see if this is corrected the problem.

It is very easy to criticize when one is not mayor, but once in the armchair it is done to make the same photo that before criticized, but now everything is forgotten.

A greeting.
