The Spanish government is going to splash out €1.3 million to spruce up the Costa del Sol’s beaches for the summer season.
Fourteen seaside towns along the Malaga province coastline will benefit from the revamp.
The work will involve adding sand, reshaping the coastline and removing debris that washed up on 39 different beaches.
This emergency measure aims to repair the damage caused by the ferocious Levante storm in February.
The Government sub-delegate in Malaga province confirmed that the work will begin immediately after the storm season ends.
