Beach allocation postponed until the end of June, government approves 2026 exemption deadline

Exceptionally, for 2026, the deadline for concluding lease contracts for the use of the beach station will be within June. This is the determination made by the government decision, which charges the Coastal Agency and the local government with making the respective allocations. The granting of leases of beaches has often been a cause of clashes between beneficiaries and it seems that this pressure has caused their allocation not to be made before the summer holiday season begins.
