The heavy vehicles belong to the company managing the new marina in the Canal de la Fontana which will have a capacity for 300 moorings . After the last storms , “ Marina Nou Fontana ” has been obliged to dredge the channel and place the sand and sediment on the Punta de l ’ Arenal so that the waves can return it to the sea .
