Holidaymakers caught on camera in mad dash for sun-loungers - as some families resort to queuing through night
This is the moment dozens of holidaymakers equipped with towels rushed to bag a sun lounger on the Costa del Sol.
At one hotel, a reporter watched on as tourists elbowed each other out of the way in an unseemly morning rush for loungers as staff observed from afar. They also saw holidaymakers wake up at the crack of dawn to put their towels down in a determined bid to dominate the pool side. Brit Natasha Hawley, 44, from Kent, is on holiday with her husband John and her child Aiden, 20, who has special educational needs.
Phil said: “You get up in the morning and the sun loungers are all chained up and the same happens at night time about 8pm, so it’s not like you could grab one of you tried they’re so closely policed. The sunbed wars have not been confined just to the Hotel Parasol Gardens hotel or Torremolinos, but to resorts across the Mediterranean. They have been raging for years come the summer months, but this season seems to be particularly ferocious as coastal spots get back to pre-pandemic levels of demand.
