For these past few weeks there has been a powerful stench at Mellieħa Bay, in various places along the beach, depending on the direction of the wind.
Could it be that sewage is leaking into the sea? Could it be that the hotels, lidos, etc... are responsible for this? Could it be the new sewage treatment plant at Il-Qammiegħ?
I think it’s the latter, as every time the wind is northwesterly the stench is unbearable, while the sea is crystal clear.
The authorities concerned should check what is really going on and take the necessary action.
