AN environmental group is urging the Junta to rethink a decision to allow sun loungers and parasols to be used on a protected beach.
Axarquia pressure group GENA-Ecologistas en Accion filed the complaint after businesses were granted licences to rent out the gear on El Canuelo beach in Nerja, part of the Cerro Gordo nature reserve.
It claims allowing the sun lounger company to operate on the beach infringes the conservation of natural spaces.
In his report, GENA president Rafael Yus claimed Nerja Town Hall has been putting ‘constant pressure’ on the Junta to authorise tourist activity in the area.
