Re: Santa Margarita Costa Del Sol
The only Santa Margarita I know is on the outskirts of La Línea de la Concepción next to Gibraltar

Re: Santa Margarita Costa Del Sol
Yep, that's the one.

Re: Santa Margarita Costa Del Sol
Could someone help with how you apply for a child to be registered with a Spanish state school please. We will be living outside of La Linea and probably will find a school there. I notice on the Ministry of Education search tool that there are bilingual state schools there.

However Starting at the exit to the main road by road 1) Petrol 1.6 kms 2) Super markets Maxi Dia 3 kms Carrefour 5.3 kms 3) Hospital New 4.4 kms 4) Centre of La Linea 6.2 kms 5) Gibraltar 7.5 kms All measurements from Bing Maps There is a local bus LC-3 to and from bus station in the centre of La Linea near the fontier. This passes through Santa Margarita on it's way to Alcadesa but I cannot at the moment find a timetable La Linea is well served with bars and restaurants as you would expect with a population of 65,000 If you are British then Gibraltar has a Morrisons supermaret Marks & Sparks, Debenhams etc + many more. |

I can’t say I would want to live anywhere near the place. |

Isn’t La Linea the drug capital of Spain where the police don’t even dare to enter some areas?

Re: Santa Margarita Costa Del Sol
The drug trade appears to be moving away from La Linea itself due to the recent higher police activity, not before time.
However whilst La Linea itself has always had a bad reputation ( from brothels for the Royal Navy.to drugs etc,) due to high unemployment bought on by the frontier closure in 1969, the satallite villages have had better.reputations. I believe most drug trafficking now takes place along the Costa de la Luz and into Portugal.Also up the Costa de Sol. These are the areas with less police activity around this problem, possibly as the authorities do not expect small boats to travel so far. La Linea is now also starting to prosper from employment possibilities in Gibraltar but it's hard to shake off easy money and do a full days work, but will this continue after Brexit? https://www.gbc.gi/news/guardia-civi...rug-ring-campo The port of Algeciras with it's massive container terminals is subject to the more organised crime. |
