UK holidaymakers are canceling trips to Benidorm after warnings about a dangerous area known as ‘Muggers Alley’ surfaced on social media
The alley is near a police station and a popular bar, Morgan’s Tavern. Harry warned people to be cautious, especially at night. One user suggested taking a different route to avoid trouble. They mentioned that muggers usually target drunk men, not women.
Others shared their own scary experiences. One person said they saw muggings from their hotel window. Another mentioned that this has been a problem for years. Tourists are advised to steer clear of certain areas after dark, like near Buddies bar and Tiki Beach.
Some travelers have noticed a group of muggers hanging out near KFC, waiting for unsuspecting tourists. It seems like the police know about them, but not many people report the crimes.
A few tourists complained about aggressive vendors and the growing number of beggars. One even shared a story about a woman who stole from a drunk guy right in front of them.
Despite the issues, some still enjoyed their time in Benidorm, but the rise in tricksters and muggers has definitely put a damper on things. It’s a shame because it’s such a fun place otherwise.
