Nude sunbathing and swimming are forbidden on public beaches in Sanya in the southernmost Hainan province, the citys mayor said. <\/p>\n
\"Police officers will patrol the public beaches, telling people to wear bathing suits, and can detain those who refuse to do so,\" said Wang Yong, Sanya mayor, during the ongoing annual session of the provincial peoples congress on Sunday. <\/p>\n
Wang said nude swimming and sunbathing are uncivilised behaviour and may disturb other beachgoers. <\/p>\n
According to a notice released by Sanya police, people who insist on swimming or sunbathing naked will be detained for five to 10 days. Since Thursday, police have posted notices to this effect throughout the popular resort destination, also known as \"Chinas Hawaii\". <\/p>\n
Police said surveillance cameras would also be installed on beaches. <\/p>\n
Luo Baoming, Party chief of Hainan province, criticised the behaviour as uncivilised and \"against Chinese traditions and culture\". <\/p>\n
