Bet on tourism throughout the year.
The Cantonal Party of Cartagena includes the creation of a Regional Park in the Marchamalo saltpans of La Manga del Mar Menor in its electoral program for the upcoming regional elections.
This protected area with up to five figures of environmental protection of European character, among which stand out the Sites of Community Interest (LIC) and the Special Bird Protection Area (ZEPA), has stable colonies of flamingos and other aquatic species of high ecological value.
A unique enclave only similar in the Region to the Natural Park of Las Salinas in San Pedro del Pinatar where the Autonomous Community has conditioned, with interventions of low environmental impact, bird observatories, an interpretation center and wooden walkways around the wetland with explanatory panels of flora and fauna.
Most of Marchamalo's salt mines belong to the promoters Alfonso García and Mariano Roca who have lost an appeal in the Supreme Court about the reduction of the public domain servitude zone from one hundred to twenty meters as in other sections of the coast.
This judicial decision prevents de facto construction in this territory.
The PCAN proposes that the Regional Administration buy or expropriate the environment, also classified as Wetland of International Importance, for its adaptation to the visits of tourists in the likeness of its twin from Pinar del Rio.
The Secretary General of the Cantonal Party, Celestino García Alfaro, believes that La Manga "has to diversify its offer to visitors and that, with a low investment, this enclave offers a new and attractive point of interest for the main beach of the municipality."
This initiative fulfills the objective, so requested by the businessmen and associations of the area, to deseasonalize the tourist influx and, therefore, one more step for the revitalization of economic activity beyond the three months of summer.
