With the aim of reinforcing tourist information services and improving visitor services, Calpe is once again installing two tourist information points on the beaches. These points are located on Arenal-Bol beach and Fossa beach and are staffed by tourist guides who join the department's existing staff.
The Calpe Local Police commanders have met with the Mayor, Juan Antonio Sánchez, and the Councillor for Public Safety, Guillermo Sendra, to prepare the security plan for the summer period.

Calpe Town Council wants to reward emerging talent from Calpe who have excelled in the fields of sport and culture. For this reason, the plenary session has given initial approval to the regulations for these awards, which will be presented at the Calpe Sports and Culture Gala to be held in September.
This morning, the “Smoke-Free Beaches” flags were raised on Calpe's main beaches, symbolising the start of the new municipal by-law on the use and management of the coastline, which restricts smoking along the entire Calpe coast. The regulation, which came into force a few days ago, is in line with the Town Council's commitment to public health and environmental protection.
At its regular plenary session this afternoon, Calpe Town Council will discuss initiating the process to amend the PGOU in order to prohibit the conversion of commercial premises into residential properties within the municipal area, except in La Fossa.
Last week, Calpe Town Council began a new phase in the selection process to recruit new officers to the Local Police Force with the aim of strengthening the workforce and security in the municipality.
