The kiosk on the beach in Santa Margherita di Pula, just steps from the water, has been removed. This was announced by the Legal Intervention Group, which had sought to shed light on the structure's presence on the seashore.
"The Forestry Corps and the Coast Guard," the Grig wrote in a statement, "have conducted investigations. The Regional Property and Heritage Department has reported the existence of four maritime "beach" concessions from 2015 to 2024: the last one "expires by December 31, 2024." Upon the expiration of the concession, the clearing and environmental restoration were obviously to be carried out ."
The Municipality of Pula also announced that it conducted an inspection on August 19, 2026, "uncovering some irregularities." It also noted that the company owning the beach facility announced on September 10 that the beach facility had been completely removed.
Therefore, the environmentalists conclude, " the landscape permit expired on December 31, 2024 , and it merely extends the state-owned "beach" concession until December 31, 2024. No permit was issued in 2025 and 2026 , yet the beach facility was operational, generating significant revenue for the operator. No sanctions were issued, and the illegal beach facility was removed by its owners. It goes without saying that no environmental inspections of this matter have been carried out in recent years."
