Holidaymakers have said that the Mediterranean Sea is so hot they can’t even go for a dip to cool off.
Tourists visiting Mallorca have reported that the sea is offering little respite from the heat that is enveloping Europe.
One German tourist told Mallorca Magazin: ‘The sea is so incredibly warm! This isn’t normal!
‘I even swam out further, but the water just didn’t get any cooler.’
Temperatures in the seas around Mallorca in August sit, on average, around 26C.
But AEMET, Spain‘s national meteorological agency, said this morning that the sea surface temperatures just off the coast of Mallorca reached a sweltering 33.02C on Wednesday.
