Top Travel YouTubers have issued a harsh warning to Brits who plan to grab a bit of winter sun in one of Europe's most popular resort towns. Benidorm is already in the warm, sunny weather as the British people are obsessed with icy start to begin in March.
But brave traveler Joe Fish claims that there is a dark side to that winter sun. When he filmed at the Beachfront Promenade in a Spanish holiday hotspot, he was approaching a gangster who had been pickpocketed and temporarily distracted, causing one of the criminals to get over his bag.
Luckily, he realized what was going on before the con man could escape with one of his valuables.
“I can't believe my bag has opened,” said the terrifying Joe. “He tried to make a fuss in my bag,” the podcaster added: “If I had been doing p****d and had no wisdom about me, it would have been a completely different ending.”
He warned others who plan to visit tourist mecca, which attracts nearly 3m of Brits each year. Don't be drawn into the sun and smile. Make sure you have wisdom about you. ”
He also highlights the “pea scam” gang. There, individuals participate in a game of equipment that includes peas and several cups, and the accomplices in the crowd try to swipe at their valuables. They may also signal other criminals about where your valuables are.
“My research revealed that Benidorm is the number one city in the world due to the fraud of British people overseas, where more than £12 million a year was garnered to British tourists. It's lost,” Joe says.
Nevertheless, millions are seduced on a cheap holiday just hours from Heathrow, with little or no “glowing” weather and language barriers.
However, despite some cultural differences, Joe states: You can see Spaniards walking in line with coats and scarves – like in February here – see the British in the bar with no tops on shorts or flip-flops. ”
Perhaps it's the best that Benidorm's British tend to not care about shirts.
Some of the T-shirts offered at many souvenir shops in the new town have risque slogans printed on Etremley. “Joe says.
“If they certainly read some of these T-shirts, you might face some strange conversations!!!”
