Answer
Why did the Magaluf jet-ski project fail?
A similar project in Magaluf failed after protests. That shows how quickly a marine leisure proposal can run into resistance when local people feel the noise, safety risks or coastal pressure have not been properly addressed. The s'Arenal case is likely being watched closely for the same reason.
