Benidorm is a destination that Brits keep going back to - and for good reason. The area is known for its warm temperatures, vibrant nightlife and lively beaches. It has become recognised as a beloved holiday destination for huge amounts of tourists looking for a holiday.

Around 800,000 to 900,000 Brits flock to the Spanish resort annually, establishing them as the largest international tourist group in the city. The coastal city on Spain's Costa Blanca is known as the "Spanish Las Vegas" for its countless bars, clubs, and cabaret venues, especially clustered around the Levante district and Calle Gerona.

One tourist who visited shared a clip on social media of one surprising scene which has quickly circulated online.

Benidorm attracts an incredibly varied clientele that changes considerably depending on the season and the particular area of the city.

While it is famously a magnet for British "sun and sea" tourists, it is equally a prime destination for Spanish nationals and pensioners.

Holidaymaker, Mattie Powell, from North Wales, recently detailed his experience of a Benidorm getaway, describing an unusual sight that he didn't expect to see.

He said he saw "everything you expect and more" when he glanced out of his hotel window.

Mattie posted to his Instagram page a video showing a "traffic jam of mobility scooters" along a Benidorm path.

He captioned it: "Traffic jam of mobility scooters was not on my 2026 bingo card."

Those who use mobility scooters are known to regularly head to Benidorm because the resort is remarkably flat and accessible, especially along its extensive beachfront promenades.

This renders it an unusual holiday destination where people with limited mobility can move about independently for miles.

Numerous people were loving the video, as it accumulated over 105,000 likes.

One person joked: "City's safe in their hands."

While another user quipped: "Might go there and do some British spotting."

The post follows a recent visit to Benidorm by an American tourist who found himself baffled by one thing.

Travel enthusiast Kalani, from the US, revealed he was repeatedly quizzed about someone called "Charlie" during his stay.

"I need someone to tell me about who Charlie is," Kalani said, recounting how numerous people had approached him offering him "Charlie" after a night out on the Strip.

It didn't take long for his followers to set him straight, explaining that it is a widely-used slang term for cocaine.
