Empuriabrava - Not as busy as usual.

This years slump in Tourists may be affecting some people, bookings on lettings are definitely down, i know this for a fact, but what's the reason?
Most people are blaming the rising cost of living, and mainly petrol. Lot's of people don't want to travel long distances from Germany and Holland etc, because filling up your car with petrol has risen significantly over the past few months. This does not mean that Empuriabrava is not busy, it's just that for people who live here, we notice it more than most.

In recent years i personally have seen a slow decline in the number of people visiting the area, the reason, well I'm not quite sure. I for one have seen a slow decline in the upkeep of Empuriabrava, the bridges are all decaying and the roads and pavements are just hanging together. For people that live here, we have grown used to it, but for people who arrive in the harbour in their $2 million Boat, the whole town must be somewhat of a disappointment.

The one thing the town could spend it's money on is improving the inside of the town, stop building roundabouts and start spending money on improving the bridges, roads and beach front, which in my opinion is an absolute disgrace. If you have visited the town of Estartit over the last several years, you will notice how the council has spent it's money wisely on paths, childrens play areas and more.
