They were taken to the police station and charged with conducting an embarrassing and pornographic act in public. They were fined 5,000 baht each -- the highest possible fine for the offence.

Tourist police said that both tourists were drunk. While walking along the beach, they didn't see anybody close to them and started to have sex, they said.
