Playa San Juan's beaches open again after rain

Playa san Juan's beach is again open to the public and fully restored after the damage caused by the recent rains. The council says that it acted on the best information available at the time, but the amount of rain that fell was well beyond forecasts and took everyone by surprise. Nonetheless, some 4,500 tons of debris has been removed by 200 lorries and all is now back to normal. Both of the town's beaches - playa grande and playa chica -are now open again as of 2pm this afternoon. JA

They mean of course 200 lorry loads, each of 22 tonnes

I was down on Friday afternoon and the car park was nearly done.  Work on the beach was proceeding.  Glad it is all open again.
