A small fire in Nerja destroyed about 2,000 square metres of vegetation near Carabeillo beach yesterday.
A bonfire made by a group celebrating San Juan turned into a small bush fire yesterday, destroying vegetation and causing one house to be temporarily evacuated as a precautionary measure. The fire was in an area overlooking Carabeillo beach and amongst the plants destroyed was a large specimen of rubber plant.
The local Fire Brigade were quickly on the scene and the mini blaze was controlled and extinguished within an hour.
