THE UK has issued new travel advice for Brits heading to Spain this summer.
Spain is currently still seeing extremely high temperatures, which has recorded highs of 40C.
This has led to the deaths of 212 people in recent weeks.
And new advice from the UK Foreign Office has warned Brits, especially those with kids, to be aware when swimming to cool off.
The updated advice states: “Every year, people drown in the sea and in swimming pools in Spain.
“Always supervise children. Keep small children within arms-reach in and around swimming pools, even if they can swim or there is a lifeguard present.”
They also issued advice for Brits swimming in the sea.
It continued: “Take care when swimming in the sea. Always supervise children and keep small children within arms-reach.
“Some beaches, especially around Spanish islands, may have strong undercurrents.
“Hidden rocks or shallow depths can cause serious injury or death.
“Do not dive into unknown water and do not swim at beaches where a river runs into the sea.
“If you are walking along unmonitored beaches, be aware that waves can come in further than expected and have strong undertows.”
Spain has a similar flag system to the UK, so if there is a red flag, it means not to swim in the water.
Here is another new Spanish rule you need to be aware of and it affects you at the airport.
