Vale do Lobo villas tsunami & demolition risks

Vale do Lobo seaside / beachfront villas on the Algarve in Portugal face a double threat;

1) A Mega Tsunami from the expected La Palma massive land slip, and
2) The Portuguese Water Resources Ownership law (no. 54/2005) of 2005, (ratified in 2014).

Vale do Lobo was last destroyed by a tsunami in 1755, but the La Palma event, which will happen, will make that tidal wave look like a splash in the ocean!

Also, the Portuguese Government is ordering that many Vale do Lobo villas be demolished for being too close to the Mediterranean / Atlantic coastline. If you are going to stay in a villa in Vale do Lobo, make sure that your deposit is protected. If you are thinking of buying a beachfront Vale do Lobo villa, make sure you get a certificate from the local camara planning office stating that there is no demolition threat under law 54/2005 to the villa you want to buy.
