Málaga tells tourists to cover up and behave this summer

Málaga tells tourists to cover up and behave this summer

The city has also introduced fines of up to €750 for littering, public intoxication and other infractions.

Planning a trip to Málaga this summer? The southern Spanish city has a message for you. Or, rather, 10 of them.

“Dress completely” and “do not be conspicuous” stand at the top of the list of golden rules just released by the city. They are all part of Málaga’s ‘Improve Your Stay’ campaign.

First launched last summer, the updated tourist behaviour campaign aims to curb the antics of certain unruly visitors.

What are Málaga’s new rules?

The list of 10 strongly suggested rules, now displayed on buses, billboards and social media, is designed to ease tensions between tourists and residents, many of whom feel the city has reached a breaking point.

The campaign asks visitors to keep noise down, especially at night; avoid shouting or blaring music in residential areas; and use designated bins and toilets.

Scooters and bicycles are banned from pedestrian areas, while skimpy outfits and bare skin are discouraged anywhere off the beach. (Euronews)
