From a trickle to a torrent

Regular visitors to Camp de Mar's beach will know well the trickle of water from the stream to the sea that run across it.

However, the recent heavy storms in the region caused the stream to turn into a torrent that has practically cut the beach in two!

Building works underway... more planned

We're sorry to report that the construction of the new megahotel is well underway, and that large swathes of land behind the golf course - on the popular path to Peguera - have disappeared as the earth movers and diggers go about their business.

Consequently, noise, dust and numerous lorry movements dominate the village.

This video courtesy of Diario de Mallorca shows what's going.

The local council are also continuing plans to build a roundabout on the main road to Andratx to ease the problem of vehicles turning into and out of Camp de Mar across fast moving traffic. Local landowners have been up in arms about the compulsory annexation of their land for the project, which is up for tender soon.

The council are also looking to locate a municipal depot in Camp de Mar, and there is speculation about permission for a boat yard for dry storage of small vessels.

Exciting times ahead.
