The Guardia Civil has issued a warning after reporting ten jet ski users who were spotted off Cantarriján beach, in the Maro-Cerro Gordo Cliffs ... natural park on the border between Malaga and Granada provinces earlier in June.

The operation was carried out by officers from the Granada provincial maritime service during a patrol to monitor the coastline and regulate water sports activities in protected natural areas.

The jet skis were found in coastal waters, a short distance from the beach, in an area subject to specific restrictions due to its particular environmental value. The officers identified the riders and issued the relevant report for alleged breaches of the regulations governing protected natural areas in Andalucía.
