"Funky Fuengirola's Beach Tunes in: Audio Aid for Sight-Challenged Swimmers Makes Waves!"

"Fuengirola's Beach Goes Audio-Tech: Making Waves & Guiding Ways for Sight-Challenged Sunbathers!

Imagine this: It's a sunny day at Las Gaviotas beach in Fuengirola, and while many are relying on their sunnies, some are tuning into beachy beats to navigate their way around! That's right, this summer saw Fuengirola's sandy shores take an acoustical approach, making it the go-to spot for those whose eyes might not catch every shimmer of the sea.

Come June, the beach got a tech upgrade, boasting two groovy audio totems and a trio of sound beacons, all part of a master plan to help our visually impaired buddies soak up some sun safely.

And get this: Beach-goers are also given a nifty bracelet. No, it's not just for style; it's the magic key to activating these audio wonders, both on land and amidst the waves, ensuring they're always on the right track.

Mayor Ana Mula is all praises for the system, dubbing it a ‘sound success’. It's a melody in line with the council's master tune of making the town’s public areas and beaches accessible to everyone, irrespective of their mobility. And if you're all about numbers, here's a stat that'll make you groove: over 2,600 folks with mobility or visual challenges have relished these specially-adapted beachy vibes.

Mayor Mula strummed a nostalgic note, reminiscing, “Our mission for accessibility isn't just a recent hit. We've been rocking this gig for years, from urban beats to coastal rhythms. Andalucía saw us taking the lead, and today, with our four Universal Accessibility flags waving high, it's clear we're acing the chart! And that, folks, is how Fuengirola is setting the gold standard in beach tunes and dunes!"

Although it is impossible to know if property prices will fall further, recent figures suggest the decrease has slowed down nationwide. Buyers have seen prices drop substantially – in some cases up to 30-40% - since the recession started to bite in 2008, bringing what many believe to be over-inflated prices closer to what the real value of the properties are, and in some cases being sold under their true value. For decades Marbella had a reputation of being the playground for the rich and famous. Plush villas owned by Hollywood stars like Sean Connery or Arab royalty, and super-yachts moored in Puerto Banus raised the profile of the city and surrounding areas to the world’s favourite spot for summer sun.
