Yeah and there were about 3 of them along the beach front each about the same size....not surprisingly they have someone there all the time, day & night to protect them!!!

Really ?

Obviously they're prime for "vandalism" but, like chalk drawings on a pavement, I'd have thought the builder would understand that it's life is exceedingly limited.

Yup we went for a walk about 1-2am and people were there with genny's and lights still sat there protecting their work!!!

I think the expencancy is definately limited, but i would imagine they make a fair bit of cash out of them (all the sculptures had multiple donation bins around them!!)

I'll try and get some pics from the beach were my sister is in Fuertavenura when we go over in November. Makes those look basic.

Might even have some pics from the last vist.
