Fuengirola - Bar-owners and tour guides on the Costa del Sol said the Basque separatist terror group ETA had failed to dent the tourist trade.
Police in the resort of Fuengirola made a show of force as they patrolled the beach front in large numbers. A spokesman at the Comisaria de Policia in the town said: "The aim is to give British tourists the message that they will be safe here."
