New warning signs have popped up on Benidorm beaches, urging Brit holidaymakers to exercise caution while enjoying their sunbathing.
A local resident, known as Frankthestagman on TikTok, took it upon himself to share the warnings with his 148,000 followers.
The sign, recently erected on the popular Spanish beach, warns tourists of potential hazards including thieves targeting personal belongings and advises leaving valuables in the hotel. It also discourages exercising during peak sun hours and reminds visitors not to leave pets in hot cars.

However, Frank was particularly keen to highlight the warning against buying drinks from unauthorised sellers, who may be selling unsafe products at a high markup.

In a shocking vid shared online, he said: “This is on Benidorm’s beach, one of the newest warning signs on the beach, they’ve got on there what I was talking about the other day about the illegal drink sellers.”
Before this bombshell, our TikTok insider had already dished out the dirt on how dodgy these beverages really are, claiming they’re “made in the boot of a car” by the roadside.
Frank added: “Keep away from the likes of this guy here.

“He is an illegal drink seller and those drinks look really nice, they do, but the problem you’ve got is that the people that do this sort of thing – he’s gonna walk down to the ledge and make it seem like he’s from that beach club.”
The guy’s smooth moves don’t stop there, as Frank warns: “And what he’s gonna do is try and sell those cocktails at a tenner each, and they’ve been made by the side of the road in the boot of a car. You don’t know what’s in them.”
Spotting a bloke with a tray chock-full of suspect sips heading for the beach, he highlights another red flag: “If you buy drinks from these vendors on the beach, you can seriously get a huge fine. It’s a bit unfair in a way as it should be just the vendor that gets the fine.”
