The ban, which was allegedly pushed by local authorities, will take place until at least December 2027.If caught drinking outside of designated areas, people could face fines between €500-1,500 (£430-1290), the BBC adds.
Drinkers will also apparently be reported to their respective embassies.Party boats will also have strict rules enforced on their proximity to designated areas; they will be banned from sailing closer than one nautical mile to certain zones, as well as picking up or disembarking passengers within these areas.
