I thought this beach belonged to VERGEL, we had always called it Vergel beach because it was the town where my aunt lived and also where she had the apartment near this beach, where we spent the summers of our childhood in the 70s… What happy memories!!! Even though the tap water was undrinkable, and the street light was from the private street lamps… What a disappointment when 10 years ago we returned to the place of our childhood and we saw that the beach HAD DISAPPEARED!!!! But happily I checked on the internet and thanks to Google Maps, that after an investment of 15 MILLION EUROS by the Central Government the sand and the beach have been recovered!!!, let’s see how long it lasts!!! From what I read in the comments, they have not improved much in terms of lighting, they are still the same as in the 70s 😅😅😅 by the way, what an impression to return 30 years later and see that the restaurant/nightclub EL CAPITÁN was still in the same place but completely abandoned…
This article must be very old because those sandy beaches no longer exist in Les Deveses. They have been shrinking since the end of the last century due to the lack of aggregates that do not reach the sea (construction of dams) and changes in currents (construction of ports and breakwater, especially the last one between Almadraba and les Deveses, which did not end in L as it should have been done, the plan for the regeneration of the Denia beaches financed by the European Union was not finished and that surprisingly ended there, leaving the Deveses beach unprotected.After the last 2 storms (2017 and Gloria 2019) the water reaches the houses and there is no sand on a good stretch of the beach. Specifically in the photo where it says "El Montgo from les Deveses", neither that terrace nor the stairs on the right exist anymore and everything is water up to the houses !!!.
Nor does Los Baños have private parking and cars park wherever they can, invading car parks and private chalets.
So please, before publishing something, update your photos and your data and show what the current reality is like!!
Bonjour je suis tout à fait d'accord. Je connais très bien lage Deveses avant and après les multiples tempêtes. Ce n'est plus this big and magnificent beach. Il faut arrêter de vendre du rêve aux tourists, la ville de Denia comme les agences de locations immobilières diffusent des photos anciennes, c'est malhonnête!!
Miguel Angel is absolutely right, the regrettable abandonment of the area is a shame. There is no lighting (cycling lane sports is reckless at certain times), not enough pruning containers, not even garbage (and note that the receipts are not cheap), holes in the road, lack of police presence (assault season from October-March )…. we suffered a total abandonment by the City Council. They do not even care about the conservation of the natural space, disastrous protection of the dune system "supposedly protected zones A and B", not to mention the nautical channels that are being enabled for kitesurfing. I understand that Kite schools should be given a "category" location outside the saturated areas, it is inconceivable that HUNDREDS OF BATHERS EVERY DAY (many elderly people) are forced to leave an area of more than 300 meters of sand and water …… .so that schools can carry out their economic activity. What does it mean to pull the sand and water to the vacationers so that a few can deploy their kites? Well, no gentlemen, the development of the sporting activity is always determined by the number of users in that area of the beach. Then, it is normal for vacationers to choose another destination and that no one wants to rent apartments in the area again.
Finally, I would like to give a touch of attention to those responsible for the Devesses beach maintenance service. MY LORDS, how do you allow your operators to lower the height of the dunes protected with heavy machinery? If the wooden walkways are small-short, put larger ones, but do not lower the height of a protected dune system (zone B) by 2 meters, then it is normal for water to enter the streets before any storm. This happens in Germany and more than one person in charge would be in trouble, but in Spain, …… .. nothing ever happens.
.
Good luck to all the neighbors.
I would like the media to also echo the unfortunate situation in which the residents of Les Deveses find ourselves and not only publish that there is a beach. We live in streets without public lighting, despite the fact that the Sindic de Greuges has agreed with our protest writings and has urged the city council up to three times to install public lighting. When night falls, the dangers and threats multiply. We walk with flashlights through all the streets, sometimes there is no choice but to walk along the bike lane and cars literally brush past walkers. Cars park in the bike lane and you have to step on the road, both pedestrians and cyclists. There is an abandoned building with several houses from which rats come out (I live opposite and see it daily). Occupants also jump into homes making annoying noise until the wee hours of the morning. Garbage is not collected daily and it smells very bad. There have been house robberies because complete darkness without streetlights is an accomplice for thieves. The Santa Ana beach area is literally the most abandoned area of Les Deveses and I can say that my taxes are not reflected in the quality of life that I was looking for with my family. We are abandoned and they have only lit three streetlights due to the complaint of a neighbor who fell at night and thus avoided the trial. It is an area that I do not recommend to anyone to live in and many neighbors have sold their houses due to the municipal abandonment and the lack of services.
