Beachgoers paddled as wildfire smoke loomed over the coast in Spain.

Dramatic footage shows holidaymakers in the sea as a towering column of smoke rises from a blaze in Paraje Cueva del Moro, near Bolonia in Cadiz.

The plume stretched as far as Playa del Carmen in Zahara de los Atunes on August 11.

Despite the ominous backdrop, swimmers continued to relax in the water and soak up the sun, seemingly unfazed by the flames beyond the shore.

Spain's Ecological Transition Ministry reported that approximately 39,155 hectares of land were burned across the country between January 1 and August 3 this year, a 9 per cent increase compared to the same period last year.
