The storm Emilia wreaks havoc on the beaches of Marbella

The strong sea storm this weekend in Marbella caused by the storm Emilia has once again led to significant losses of sand on the beaches of La Venus, Casablanca, and those in the eastern area of the municipality. The waves have stripped several sections of the coastline and affected some beach bars, mainly Soleo, located on La Venus beach.

The eastern beaches have suffered damages that the City Council describes as "notable," with "significant" sand losses in the areas of La Víbora and Las Chapas, as well as the appearance of large cuts and gullies on Las Chapas beach.

In some areas, erosion has exposed supply pipes, remnants of stones in the dry sand, and the undermining of access to wooden walkways. Since last night, the Beach Department of the Council has been working in the most affected areas with heavy machinery, achieving that almost all the damaged areas are now "practically restored," as the work allows for quick coverage and repair of the most affected points, according to municipal sources.

On the other hand, the storm has reached the Coastal Path in Nueva Andalucía, covering it with sand and reeds. The City Council is also working from the early hours of the morning to clean this maritime path.
