British man in Spain issues 'serious' advice to anyone visiting Benidorm in June
A British man living in Benidorm has told holidaymakers that there's one item they must pack in their suitcases before flying out to the Spanish tourist destination
It goes without saying that you should pack suncream when you're planning on going on a summer holiday. However, a British man in Benidorm really hammered home this point. That's because the destination has become "seriously" hot in recent days.
In a TikTok video, expat Harry warned that temperatures have become absolutely sweltering. He said: "This is a serious warning for anyone coming out to Benidorm. Honestly, you must pack sun cream. The temperature at the moment is unbelievable. When you see the temperature, you are going to be shocked."
Harry showed an LCD screen that displayed the conditions outside at 6pm. Even though it was approaching evening time at the Spanish destination, the temperature still read a whopping 35C.
People were equally as taken-aback by the reading and took to the comments section to share their thoughts. One person wrote: "I fly out on Saturday, wasn't expecting temperatures like that in June!"
Another wrote: "I'm here now, [wearing] factor 30 and still got burnt today! Spent most of the day in the sea."
And a third echoed the advice, writing: "Here now and the heat is real. Make sure you're covered in sun cream guys."
According to BBC Weather, Benidorm is set to see highs of 29°C for the next few days, before creeping back up into the 30s over the weekend and into next week.
Those temperatures aren't too dissimilar from some parts of the UK that are also forecast to break 30°C this weekend, including London and Birmingham.
Temperatures in Scotland should be cooler, with Edinburgh and Glasgow both due for around 24°C over the weekend.
To protect yourself in the heat, make sure to keep your suncream topped up all day. It is also advisable to stay in the shade – and you may want to avoid venturing out during the hottest parts of the day.

From Deal to Leigh-on-Sea: the best beach breaks within two hours of London for a chic staycation
Brighton's beach has been a hotspot for day trippers ever since the Victorian era. And while the pebbles can be painful underfoot, there's nothing quite like pulling out a picnic blanket and soaking in the British sun after a dip in the Channel. The beach itself stretches down the coast all the way to Hove, fringed by the brightly coloured beach huts for which the area is famous, as well as an ever-expanding list of restaurants, bars and tiny art galleries. And let's not forget the pier: a must-visit, if just to soak in the atmosphere.
