This video shows the latest Canarian Corona folly. This one was erected on behalf of the 'councillor for beaches' of the local government (Ayuntamiento) on the beach of La Playa (aka Playa Maria, aka Playa La Calera) as a pilot measure to ensure social distancing on beaches. Wooden walkways are to be installed next, amid all the existing complicated rules to visit public areas. The video also shows the regular 'disinfection' of lamp posts, etc...Don't forget to wear your face mask when walking to your allocated disinfected spot in the sand.
Well, maybe the yellow lines separating the sunbathing bays could be used for drying your towels if you applied for permission first and had disinfected them properly ?
The next big swell will wash it all away and disinfect the sand properly. Yet more Corona-plastic waste, though.
UPDATE Sept. 18th 2020:
A change in wind direction and higher tides resulted in the whole effort ending up as a tangled mess,
which was then removed by the council.
Anyone who's only ever been there for a week could have predicted that. Anyway, hardly anyone ever used the cordoned-off sections and the beach is back to its natural state now.
