Operation Elstree has taken place in key locations including Cardiff Bay, Penarth and Barry Island, as well as the Heritage Coastline stretch between Rhoose Point and Ogmore-by-Sea.
This is in place until Tuesday morning, June 1. Section 35 notices are in place to prevent anti-social behaviour (ASB) in Ogmore by Sea, Barry Island and the Oval Basin in Cardiff Bay.
Section 35 notices give officers the power to move people on from an area if they are acting in an anti-social manner.
Transport for Wales (TfW) also added additional services to Barry Island over the bank holiday weekend.
