The resort of Salou on the Costa Daurada, south of Barcelona, has become the first place in Spain to ban shirtless and bikini-clad tourists in a bid to clean up its reputation, which has been badly damaged after becoming a haven for drunken British students.
In a set of new by-laws passed by the town council those who flout the ban could be fined between €100 (£81) and €300 (£245).
Those caught drinking alcohol on the streets or having sex on the beach could also be prosecuted and beachwear will be banned from all but beachfront bars and restaurants.

Can't say I blame them. I've never know why some places tollerate British Lager Louts.

True, that bit's maybe going too far. But some sort of tightening of standards is long overdue.

In the summer I generally notice that those who should wear less don't and those that should wear more strip off.

It's just wrong.
