Costa del Silencio Residents Call for Restoration of Coastal Boardwalk

Inhabitants of Costa del Silencio express their discontent with the state of neglect and deplorable conditions of the coastal boardwalk that stretches between the Balcón del Mar and Maravilla residential areas, where the presence of stones and dirt makes it almost “impassable.”

Speaking to DIARIO DE AVISOS, Rodrigo Tinelli, a homeowner in the vicinity who relies on a wheelchair due to a disability, highlighted the challenges faced. “I’m immobilized, as are mothers pushing baby strollers, because the dirt and rocks obstruct the wheels, rendering movement impossible. Moreover, during rainy weather, anyone using the promenade has to wear boots,” he lamented.

The community spokesperson emphasized the widespread dissatisfaction among residents, including many foreign nationals, both property owners and vacationing tourists. “Several restaurants and businesses closed down due to the prolonged wait; now, only a couple of bars remain, struggling with sparse clientele. Who would want to stroll here? People opt for Los Cristianos or Playa de Las Américas for leisurely walks and choose Costa del Silencio solely for accommodations,” Tinelli lamented, also highlighting the issue of “uncleanliness along the walkway, with abundant dog waste and urine.”

EAGERLY AWAITING A RESPONSE

The community spokesperson revealed that residents submitted formal complaints to the Arona City Council, the Government of the Canary Islands, the Cabildo, and the Provincial Coastal Service a month ago. “The council promised to assess the situation, yet no action has been taken, and the others have not even acknowledged our concerns.”

The residents demand, at the very least, a cost-effective solution. “We are not seeking an extensive renovation; simply resurfacing with cement or asphalt, affordable and common materials, to transform it into a pedestrian-friendly path,” Tinelli stressed, noting the historical negligence of the area, which remains unchanged since its construction 40 years ago.

Expressing a sense of admiration tinged with jealousy towards the newly inaugurated promenade at Playa San Juan in Guía de Isora, Tinelli underscored, “This area boasts stunning seaside views and, if restored, could attract health-conscious individuals, benefiting both residents and tourists.” Inhabitants stress that this issue poses a serious concern in an area frequented by many tourists and home to a significant elderly population.
