Police say they will step up patrols but have asked the public to help them catch the vandals who have damaged shops and prom lighting.
There was an angry reaction on the Largs and Millport News Facebook page to the vandalism of the prom lights.
It was reported last week that 16 of the recently replaced lanterns were damaged again just before the festive period, at great expense to North Ayrshire Council.
Inspector Jones of Largs Police said: "This is mindless vandalism and police have stepped up patrols in the specific areas concerned. We would also ask the public to remain vigilant and report anyone who is acting suspiciously."
