Today, 6 October 2026, Friends of the Earth Malta (FoEM) and its Save Our Shores project brought the concerns of Malta’s coastal communities directly to Parliament, with a public action highlighting the growing pressures on the country’s coastline. The action transformed the public space outside Parliament into a symbolic, overcrowded Maltese beach, with beach towels, sun umbrellas, and even a pineapple stand criticising the craze at Blue Lagoon, as well as placards representing the increasingly limited and contested space available to the public.
