There is so much spoken about making Mojácar more attractive for the tourists. This begs a few questions:
1. Why?
2. Where are we going to put them?
3. What is in it for the majority of us who don't have businesses here?
4. Will we have to queue everywhere?
5. Will we be able to park?
6. Will we be able to sleep?
7. Will the business-folk still need us during the summer, like they do during the winter (the ones that stay here during the 'low season')?
8. How many 'I got laid in Mojácar' tee shirts should I buy each summer?
Fact: one resident spends, in one year, the equivalent of 500 tourists; and is still here next year.
We could really make something of Mojácar if we dropped the Walt Disney vulgarity and became proud of the place. A beautiful town would create more demand than cheap tourism can - and more demand raises property values (unless they flood the municipality with thousands more noddy-houses - the current plan).
There isn't room,
it doesn't fit.
It's Mojácar's doom.
Enough of it!
