An enormous fire erupted in the La Bajadilla fishermen’s marina in Marbella last week, destroying around 80 pleasure boats worth millions of euros.

The emergency alarm sounded at about 7pm yesterday, January 11, and saw dozens of police, firefighters and ambulances mobilised to the scene.

It’s understood the facility, which belongs to Marina Marbella, is used for storage and boat repairs.
