What changed

It defines enhanced protection zones along the coast, regulates permitted and prohibited activities in the coastal strip, and sets stricter criteria for new construction near the shore. Climate change adaptation measures addressing erosion and sea-level rise are also included.
Who is affected
It affects owners of land and property in the Valencian coastal strip, developers planning coastal projects, and coastal municipalities that must update their urban planning instruments accordingly.
What to look out for
→ If you own or plan to develop property near the Valencian coast, check with your local council whether your land falls within the new protection zones before starting any construction or development project.
