Violence erupts at holiday hotspot boat party as brawling Brits end up in sea

Daily Mirror6 hours ago

British tourists caused chaos at a boat party in Ibiza after becoming embroiled in a fight which ended with three people in the water.
Shocking images captured the moment when two Brits tumbled into the sea, before the party organiser fell in whilst trying to stop the punch-up. It comes after the group of revellers were kicked off the vessel.
One of the male tourists was seen pushing and punching the other male into the water, before later joining another brawl further along the seafront in San Antonio. A witness who posted the footage on TikTok titled the video: 'English people in Ibiza' before adding: 'English people are so problematic.'
When asked by other social media users how she knew their nationalities, the TikTok user Marylou1313 replied: 'Because I was there.' Another Brit joined in the conversation by insisting: 'English people are very educated, we are not all the same,' prompting the witness to reply: 'I know.'
On Monday, footage from an explosive altercation at the popular Marco Polo hotel in the same resort made headlines. One man was struck by a flying chair in the poolside fight and a woman was knocked unconscious.
The footage of the hotel brawl was shared on Instagram yesterday by @‌sanantonioibiza. In May, an easyJet passenger branded English tourists she had to share a flight to Ibiza with as 'animals' in an angry rant at the type of holidaymakers her island is letting in.
Ibiza resident Erika Barrachina posted footage of the boisterous Brits online as she dubbed them 'scum' and insisted they shouldn't have been allowed on the plane in the first place.
In a no-holds-barred message alongside a video of the packed plane where passengers could be seen banging on luggage compartments above them and yelling: 'Come on Ibiza', the Spanish speaker said: 'My flight from London to Ibiza was absolutely horrible.
'I was scared. A plane full of real English animals. Everyone standing, screaming, guys hitting each other, drinking bottles of alcohol one after the other and stopping the flight attendants from doing their job. Real hell."
She added: 'This video is the just the end because I couldn't film what happened during the journey. Before boarding the plane they were drunk and high. Taking pills and drinking alcohol at the same time, which I saw with my own eyes. It was a really wild 2.5 hour flight.
'This shouldn't be allowed. They shouldn't let scum like this get on a plane or sell alcohol on board. We don't want this type of tourism in Ibiza, they should stay at home. I had a very bad time and the flight attendants unable to do anything because how do you control this wild animals inside a plane. There has to be a solution.'

American tourist shares seven things that 'make no sense' about London

American tourist Nick Watts shared his biggest culture shocks after visiting the UK for the first time, including having to pay to use the loo and birds being 'worse' than in New York City London remains a hotspot for international tourists, drawing in 20.3 million visitors in 2023 alone and generating £27.3billion for the local economy. However, while tourism undoubtedly has its benefits, there's no denying that it can be frustrating for locals when their favourite haunts become overrun with visitors. That being said, it can be intriguing to hear the thoughts of someone experiencing the city for the first time. American tourist Nick Watts took to TikTok to share the seven biggest cultural shocks he encountered on his maiden visit to London in May. ‌ "Instant reactions to London as an American," he captioned a photo of himself posing in front of Buckingham Palace. ‌ He went on to share his list of things that had surprised him during his recent visit to London 1. Emergency pull cords in bathrooms For the first thing on Nick's list, he shared his shock after learning about the red emergency cord that often hangs inside public bathrooms. Not knowing what it was, Nick revealed he'd pulled on it multiple times, not knowing the serious meaning it had, "Pulled this thing like six times but apparently it's British life alert, a heads up would be nice," he said. 2. Paying to use the bathrooms In the UK, using public toilets is normally free of charge, particularly in places like train stations and shopping centres. ‌ However there are some bathrooms, especially those under private management, where a fee, typically around 50p, might be levied to help maintain their facilities. Though most find this practice annoying and 'unfair', Nick embraced the concept, suggesting the charge was worth it for added cleanliness and security. "Hot take, but I'm a fan of paying for the bathroom. Super clean and safe. US should have them," he wrote on his post. ‌ 3. Food is better than expected - usually "British foods get more hate than it deserves, this was all good stuff," he said while sharing an image of his full English breakfast, joking about American tendencies to merge meals into something else. "In America we'd just combine it all into an omelette or a sandwich lol." His enthusiasm swayed slightly with traditional beans on toast though, commenting that while it's acceptable, his preference veers towards the American version. "Beans on toast is fine. I prefer American baked beans though," he commented. ‌ 4. Using the imperial system Nick highlighted a paradox concerning Britain's measurement preferences, saying, "They give us so much grief about the imperial system but use it all the time." Despite a general shift towards the metric system, Brits often revert to imperial units, notably in measuring personal heights and road distances. This notion struck him during a visit to Greggs where he noticed sausage rolls being sized by inches instead of centimetres. ‌ 5. Reverse order elevators In a rather peculiar discovery, Nick stumbled upon an elevator at Paddington station where the buttons were arranged in a 'reverse' order. The sequence started from floor 2, then descended to 2B and 3. "Reverse order elevator? Absolutely not. I don't think this is common, but still," he commented. The reason behind this unusual arrangement was that the lifts were heading underground towards the Bakerloo line. Typically, when elevators go below ground level, they display a minus sign before the numbers to indicate their subterranean position. ‌ 6. The prices Nick then turned his attention to the pricing of certain items, without providing any specific reasons for his views. "Raise the price on plastic surgery, please," he suggested in one slide. In the next, he proposed: "Lower the price on everything else." While the prices of things in London tend to be more expensive than the rest of the country, he did not explain his reasoning for wanting plastic surgery to be more expensive. 7. 'Annoying' birds If you've ever been to London, you will be aware that the more touristy areas and parks will be filled with birds, particularly doves and seagulls, hoping to get some of your food. However, Nick went on to argue that London birds were 'worse' than the birds that he had come across in New York City, which is also known for having pigeons trying to steal your food." "Not sure how you've done it, but the birds here are worse than NYC. Absurdly annoying," he complained.

'Hidden' coastal city that's stone's throw from Benidorm is 'just like Mykonos'

Benidorm is a top holiday destination for Brits, with its cheap prices, sunny weather and the famous Calle Gerona - best known as 'the strip', but there's a hidden gem nearby Benidorm is a popular British tourist hotspot known for its sunshine, bargain deals, and the renowned 'the strip' on Calle Gerona. But while you're likely to encounter lively stag and hen parties along the main drag, Benidorm also harbours many stunning, lesser-known gems. For those holidaymakers looking to escape the party atmosphere, there's a delightful little town just a stone's throw from Benidorm. Despite being only minutes away, it offers a tranquil contrast to the party atmosphere for travellers, drawing comparisons to the idyllic beauty of Mykonos. ‌ Hop into a car for an 18-minute journey or catch a 12-minute bus from Benidorm Intermodal station and you'll arrive at the charming haven of Altea, Alicante. ‌ Touted as one of Spain 's "most iconic" towns, Altea is akin to stepping into a fairytale past with its winding cobbled lanes and radiant white houses. Meandering through Altea's old town, your senses are greeted by the inviting scents of coffee from local cafés and delicacies from cosy eateries. Visitors are frequently captivated by the stunning parish church, formally named Nuestra Señora del Consuelo or more commonly called Iglesia de Arriba, and the breathtaking views of shimmering seas and vast beaches beyond it. Alice, an online influencer who shares Benidorm's hidden treasures and her top picks, recommends adding Altea to any traveller's itinerary. The TikTok creator, with an audience of more than 37,000 followers, recently took in the sights of Altea. She saied: "Hidden gem only 15 mins from Benidorm! ‌ "Maybe Altea isn't a hidden gem for those in the know, but the way you could lowkey be just 15 mins away from this gorgeous slice of history and culture while on your holibobs in Benidorm!" The travel fan added: "It's an absolute MUST see if you're looking to escape for an afternoon to see some of the best views on the entire Costa Blanca. It's giving cheeky altea day trip, don't you think?" ‌ The brief video has already racked up over 16,300 likes and a host of positive comments. One visitor said: "I went there in December. Very nice." Another said: "There are stunning restaurants and bars. It's not Benidorm. They may be close but they are worlds apart. Altea is beautiful." Another person commented: "It's simply a stunning old and new town." Meanwhile, another user hailed it as their "fave place of all time". Another added it to their must-visit destinations, saying: "Definitely heading here.. never knew it was so close." Flights from the UK to Alicante are available from just £40. From there, you can hop on a bus, grab a taxi, or catch a tram to Benidorm, which should take about 40 minutes by road.
