Poll: Would you like to see smoking banned at the beach?
The ban was brought into effect in Barcelona this week.
A BAN PROHIBITING smoking on all beaches in Barcelona came into effect on Monday.
It will apply whether a person is smoking on the sand or while standing waist-deep in the water, according to reports earlier this week on the move by the city council.
Anyone flaunting the ban could face a fine, while the only areas where smoking will be allowed are where there are beach bars or restaurants.
So today we’re asking: Would you like to see smoking banned at the beach in Ireland?
