Summer lifeguard service returns to Formentera beaches

On May 1 the Formentera Council's lifeguard service resumed operations across the main beaches of the island. Ten lifeguards are now stationed at Arenals, Llevant and Illetes and by June 15 the number will have reached 23. The service, maintained through October, mostly consists of prevention and tending to minor incidents like jellyfish stings and sunstroke.

Accessible beaches
Arenals and es Pujols beaches are accessible to swimmers with reduced mobility. The service, which is restricted from 12 noon to 5.00pm when the green flag flies, can be requested by phoning 609.76.85.06.
