The National Court has dismissed the administrative appeal filed by the San Juan de Labritja Town Council and upheld the decision of the Ministry for Ecological Transition denying the concession for the occupation of 635 m² of public maritime-terrestrial domain in Portinatx, in northern Ibiza. The ruling mandates the demolition of eight boathouses and a terrace and the restoration of the land to its original state, without any private occupation, thus ending more than two decades of legal conflict over this stretch of coastline. The boathouses were initially granted a concession in 1969 for a period of 15 years, which expired in 1974 and was never renewed. However, the Town Council attempted to legalize them in 2003, arguing that they formed part of the municipality's tradition and ethnological heritage and intending to include them in a future local heritage catalog. In reality, the City Council was trying to prevent the termination of the tourist use of the terrace that crowns the irregular constructions. In fact, the small houses form the base of a large terrace with private, tourist-oriented use, as it serves as a bar with tables and chairs in the summer.
