Holidaymakers to face fines in Marbella if found without tops in public areas


























A new law has been announced in Marbella that will see shirtless holidaymakers fined €120- €500 in certain areas.
Public Safety councillor Javier Porcuna explained that the new legislation was inspired by other Spanish cities such as Barcelona, who already have similar sanctions in place.
The bill has yet to pass the approval of the Local Council, but once it has it will be active throughout the year in the majority of public spaces.
