Marbella's bronze statue of a waterskiing Venus could soon be on the move.

The Plataforma de los Espigones Transitables has reached an agreement with the town hall for the statue, made in 1972, to return to its original location by the sea.

Viability studies will soon be carried out to assess the possibility of relocating the statue from Glorieta de la Fontanilla to the round breakwater on El Faro beach.

The statue was moved from the breakwater in front of El Faro beach to its current location when the majority of the pedestrian-access breakwaters were removed in 1991.

The statue is just one of several proposals put forward by the platform which is calling for a return to these breakwaters which were first in place in the early 1970s and protected the resort's beaches but also provided a social space for residents.
