Police sent a family home after they were caught having a day out at the beach during the coronavirus lockdown.
Officers from North Wales Police said they stopped the family as they arrived in Llanfairfechan for a day out on Wednesday and were told to turn around and go home.
Under the new guidelines introduced by the Government to try and stop the spread of Covid-19, the public are being asked to remain at home.
In a post on Facebook, the force’s Conwy Coastal unit said its officers told the family, from Merseyside, that a trip to the beach was "not essential travel"
“Officers are out patrolling and it is pleasing to see that most people are sticking to the Government advice", the post said.
“But Inspector Daf Curry and PCSO Sara Owen did speak to a family of five who’d travelled from Merseyside to Llanfairfechan for a day at the seaside, to advise them this was not essential travel and to go home.”
Meanwhile, a group of bikers who stopped off in Llandovery on Tuesday were confronted by a member of the public, telling them to go home.
They had stopped outside the town’s West End Cafe, which is a popular rest spot.
In a video posted on Facebook, the man can be heard saying: “I’ve come here to tell you to disappear.
“If you bring Covid-19 into our town and my father dies because he comes into contact with someone you’ve been in contact with – that’s why it’s a lockdown you doughnuts.”
Sergeant Ian Price, Dyfed-Powys Police, said: “No longer will this type of social gathering be tolerated in places like West End Cafe, Llandovery.”
