Graham said: "Just a little warning for you. Thank me later, save yourself a few quid. They'll fine you over anything."

The warning comes after Spanish authorities tightened up restrictions on the beach. Drinking, smoking and getting frisky on the sand can all result in an expensive fine stretching up to 605.

Smoking and vaping on the beach in Benidorm will cost Brits 259 in fines according to Graham. The rules are being enforced in the hopes of minimising rowdy behaviour in the area with beach etiquette more important than ever.

Even putting up a gazebo on a bustling beach or trying to start sun bed wars with towel reserves could cost you a pretty penny. Holidaymakers have been left stumped by the new rules.

One person said: "Lose 90% of tourists doing these stupid rules."

Another person added: "Hope the police aren't under water watching me pee."

Someone else said: "Unbelievable."

British dual nationals have been hit with passport changes(Image: Jam Press)

One person added: "I won't get caught having my leg over."

Another person said: "How are they catching you doing that?"

The Daily Star previously reported on passport changes hitting the UK. Brits with dual nationality will now have to travel to the UK on a British passport, prompting concerns from experts that many will consider renouncing their UK citizenship to avoid hefty costs.

Many dual nationals never apply for a British passport, and having do so could set them back nearly 700 in administrative costs.

A British passport costs 100 for an adult, while a certificate of entitlement costs 589. Travelling on a non-British passport alone will now no longer be possible unless you have a certificate confirming you have "right of abode".
