The Mayor of Mazarrón, Ginés Campillo, stressed that "what happened responds to natural and biological process something amazing, you are studying ways to learn more about him."
The mayor stressed that "at no time was there a risk to swimmers, hence not have to close the beaches at any time before this biological process, which has been decreasing during the last hours on our shores and not Mazarrón only affected, but has also appeared in other parts of regional geography as Eagles and even Almeria ".
