Disaster at night
A devastating fire broke out tonight at the Enmar campsite in Pineda de Mar, leaving a trail of destruction. The fire started near Carrer Barcelona, at the back of the premises, and consumed seventeen bungalows and a vehicle parked outside the premises.
Quick response from the fire department
Sixteen ground crews from the Generalitat Fire Department arrived at the scene to control the fire, which was brought under control at a quarter past one in the morning. However, they had to work for hours to completely extinguish the flames.
Ongoing investigation
Authorities are investigating the cause of the fire, which caused significant damage. Seventeen bungalows were completely destroyed, three were partially damaged, and another thirty were damaged. In addition, a car parked outside was also consumed by the flames.
Fora tourist season
Fortunately, the campsite was closed for the low season, thus avoiding the need to evacuate people. The Enmar campsite, recognized with several awards, was preparing to open next week, just before Easter.
