Mojacar beaches merit Andalucia safety stamp

SEVEN Mojacar beaches and the municipal tourist office have gained the regional government stamp for safety.

The stamp signifies that Mojacar is complying with the health safety and protection measures contained in the Practical Recommendations Guide aimed at the tourism sector and published on the Junta’s Tourism, Regeneration, Justice and Local Administration web page.
Also that the locality is committed to maintaining the measures for the duration of the distinction, until June 9 2021.
