Fantastic old footage.

It must have been very tough.

The mainland looks like a desserted island when the cameraman looks across to the cabo.

Cheers Rich. I doubt if they had electricity, if they had I reckon there would have been an electric water pump.
Here's a great photo of Tabarca, wish I'd taken it!!

Its disgusting that 70 years later we've left the sea floor off Santa Pola looking like this
