The Government of Colón published Resolution No. 02-2021 of January 26, 2021, which prohibits the use of beaches, rivers and spas on Saturdays and Sundays in the province.
The document establishes that these sites may only be used from Monday to Friday from 6:00 a.m. at 4:00 p.m. by people residing in the province of Colón.
Similarly, it establishes that visitors must adopt biosecurity measures for
Covid-19 when they are on the beaches and rivers.
The security forces, justices of the peace and local authorities must ensure compliance with the resolution and punish, according to their competence, those who violate government regulations, the resolution states.
According to the Government, the measure to close these places to the public on weekends arises from the large numbers of visitors on the beaches of Costa Arriba de Colón a few days ago.
