A LITTLE known holiday rule could end up costing Brits a pretty penny if they aren't careful.
When you're soaking up the rays in Benidorm, make sure to avoid building a sandcastle – as you could be slapped with a hefty fine.
TikToker Frank explained all of the dos and don'ts for a holiday to sunny Spain.
He said: "These are the fines you can incur if you get yourself in trouble on the beach in Benidorm.
"Building sandcastles – a fine of £130.
Frank went on to explain that the rules don't include children's sand castles, but rather to "sand architects".

He continued: "But, if you're into building sandcastles you're going to get yourself a fine."
The rule was introduced in 2016 to Benidorm Beaches, and has been introduced to Arona and Arica in Tenerife as well.
If you're planning on building a large sandcastle, make sure to apply for a municipal permit before beginning construction.
Frank previously warned that tourists could face major fines for buying drinks on the beach.

Footage showed men in blue shirts walking around with trays of delicious cocktails.
But @Frankthestagman quickly warned "those people were trouble".
He said: "Right, you can probably see those guys off in the distance there walking around with drinks in their hands.
"Those drinks right are prepared on the streets, they are prepared on the boots of cars and then they walk around trying to sell them to people.
"It looks tempting but remember when you buy them – you don't know what you are getting and also if you do, you are liable to fined heavily."
The drinks are reportedly prepared in horrendously dirty conditions, with fruit cut up in floors, doorways and even on car tyres.
The unlicensed hawkers are also thought to be using substandard alcohol to make the drinks.
It comes after holidaymakers were left stunned when a naked man walked down to a busy Benidorm beach in the middle of the day.
