A Brit living in Benidorm has revealed the three things tourists are being fined for while visiting the Spanish destination’s beach.

Harry Poulton regularly shares his travel tips and advice about the sunny location with his 41,700 followers on TikTok (@harrytokky).

In a recent clip, which has racked up 43,000 views and hundreds of likes, he’s revealed the top three things Brits do while at the beach which could land them a hefty fine.

And he warns sunbed hoggers especially to be aware, reports What’s The Jam.

The 24-year-old’s first piece of advice is to avoid swimming in the sea at unrestricted hours.

He explains: “You can’t swim between midnight and 7am at Benidorm [beach] otherwise you’re going to end up with a massive fine.”

This can range from anywhere between €300 and €1,500 (£255 – £1,278).

“Reserving spots on the beach – that means putting your towel down [and] reserving a seat – not okay,” the content creator, from Brighton, says.

“Not allowed.

“You can actually get a fine of up to €200 for reserving a spot on the beach.

“Even just leaving your towel down somewhere on the beach can get you a massive fine.

“So just don’t do it.”

His final point is to avoid smoking while at the seaside.

The ban on vapes has already come into force in Spain and Italy, with France next to implement the change on 1 July.

Those caught with the e-cigarette could be forced to fork out a whopping £1,700.

And it’s no different – if not worse – when it comes to smoking regular cigarettes.

Harry explains: “To be honest, probably the most important one; smoking on Benidorm’s beach.

“Let’s be honest, we’ve all been there if you’re a smoker.

“Don’t do it – if you get caught, you are going to be fined.

“They are proper on it at the moment, so if you do all those things, you’re going to get a fine.

“If you don’t, then you’ll be absolutely fine.”

Users have flocked to the comments to share their reactions.

“I got back yesterday and tons of smoking on the beach. Asked the lifeguard if it was OK to vape and they said yes,” one user commented.

Tilly added: “I’m here, see loads of smoking.”
