The report titled Destrucción a Toda Costa 2026 warns of unprecedented fragility along the Spanish coastline. According to the document, the urbanized area on the coast has doubled in the last three decades, reaching 13.1% occupancy, a figure significantly higher than that recorded in the country's interior.
The Poniente almeriense region is of greatest concern. In El Ejido, there is a warning of a permanent risk of flooding due to rising sea levels. Likewise, the Punta Entinas-Sabinar Nature Reserve is experiencing coastal retreat exacerbated by sand extraction and the impact of nearby port infrastructure.
Other highlighted points include the capital of Almeria, with urban projects in the Retamar-El Toyo area, and the Cabo de Gata-Níjar Natural Park, where developments at Playa de los Genoveses are being questioned. The report also mentions the situation of the El Algarrobico hotel in Carboneras and various impacts in Mojácar and Adra.
