Busy puente DATA released by the Marbella Department of Tourism showed that the puente (holiday bridge for the Virgin del Pilar and National Day) saw high hotel occupancy throughout the city. Some five star hotels saw 95 per cent capacity and the average for that level reached 84.4 per cent whilst four star hotels did even better at 90.76 per cent, with other grades of hotel at 88 per cent. All in all, the results were similar to those enjoyed in 2019 and actually better than the 2018 figures, so it can be concluded although summer is over, the volume of visitors to Marbella remains high.

All of Malaga at level 0 RESTRICTIONS on capacity and hours in bars, restau‐ rants, shops and other businesses will end in the entire province of Malaga as it moves to level 0. The decision was made after a meeting by the Terri‐ torial Committee for High Impact Public Health, held on Wednesday October 13. The rules come into force at 00.00 on Thursday and affects the 11 western Costa del Sol municipalities. Although the Costa del Sol district has a cumulative incidence of more than 50 cases per 100,000 inhabi‐ tants, it has improved in other areas including decreas‐ ing infections, reduced hospital occupancy, decreasing tests, good vaccination coverage and a good percent‐ age of traceability. This allowed the region to move to level 0.
