Since when has the Blue Lagoon been awarded to private operators?

On arrival, my family and I, most of whom are foreign, were annoyed by the fact that there wasn't as much as one arm's length of space where to leave our belongings. The place, which is very small, was covered by umbrellas and unoccupied deckchairs. Removing them welcomed the operator who ordered their placement unaltered. His attitude was a buy-them-or-buzz-off one.

Also, umbrellas were placed literally touching the sea, in the minute caves and also on the higher ground, obstructing a path in so doing.

Is this legal? How come an enjoyable day at the beach must always be accompanied with forced payment?
