Holiday makers are complaining about the rule not allowing children under the age of 12 into the Community pool without an adult to supervise them. Apart from this being against our conditions for the insurance policy below is a timely warning why this is not allowed
Danger! Swimming Pools
A seven year old girl drowned on Friday in a swimming pool in Cartagena. It happened in an urbanisation at Islas Menores just before 8:00 pm. Health officials were unable to revive the child on their arrival at the scene.
Coincidentally another four year old girl almost drowned in a pool in La Manga del Mar Menor, but she was able to recover.
A two year old French girl drowned in the swimming pool of a villa in the Torreazul urbanisation in Elche last Wednesday (24th).
The villa is owned by the child’s father who is also French, and it seems the tragedy happened at 7:00 pm when the girl fell into the water while being watched by a brother and a friend. Despite attempts to resuscitate her nothing could be done to save her life. She had only arrived in Spain on holiday a few days previously.
The tragedy follows the drowning of a three year old English girl in a pool in Cómpeta last week and that of an 18 month girl in El Campello on the 13th of the month.
