CNN —Badly behaved bachelor and bachelorette partygoers could soon face heavy fines if they overstep the mark in a Spanish resort town.
The authorities in the town of Platja d’Aro, on Spain’s Costa Brava and around 60 miles northeast of Barcelona, have introduced fines for anyone daring to go out in public in costumes depicting genitalia or carrying sex dolls.
Platja d’Aro has a population of 12,500, but on summer weekends it can draw in around 150,000 visitors a day.
The town council this week approved the new fines and said it would hire more police to enforce them.
Police will issue a penalty, but alleged offenders could appeal and would not have to pay on the spot, the city hall spokesman said.
