A British man dies after jumping from a tourist ferry into the sea off Spain’s Costa Dorada. Local reports say he went into the water with the intention of swimming toward a nearby beach bar, but he does not resurface.

The incident occurs while the man is on holiday in the area. According to accounts carried by UK outlets, he is travelling with his brother and father. One report says his brother follows him into the water after the jump, but he survives.

Outlet coverage focuses on the circumstances leading up to the drowning, particularly the claim that the man jumped from the ferry to swim ashore to reach a beach bar. While details such as the exact sequence of events and his motivation are consistent across the reports, they rely on local media accounts rather than confirmed statements in the text provided.
