A picturesque British beach has been described as the ‘perfect off-grid outing’ and a death ranking for a world-famous place in the south of France.
According to Holidaycottages.co.ukBarricane Beach in Devon is the ideal budget-DUPE for Calanque d’en-Vau in Marseille.
Calanque d’en-Vau is one of the most beautiful bays along the French coast between Marseille and Cassis.
The beauty of the beach attracts many tourists who travel there by boat or by walking along the cliffs.
But if a trip to the south of France is excluded this year, British may find a similar atmosphere on Barricane Beach.
Holidaycottages.co.uk says: ‘Just like Calanque d’en-vau, a famous and picturesque rocky inlet between Cassis and Marseille in southern France, Barricane Beach in Devon is the perfect off-grid outing.
‘Known for its dramatic rocky landscapes, clear waters and remote access, it is also a great place for those who love to walk.
“It has a cafe that serves home -made Sri Lankan Curry all summer, making it a beautiful place for a refreshing sea tip, a wonderful dinner and a beautiful sunset.”

Calanque d’en-Vau is a world-famous beach between Marseille and Cassis. Do you see the parable?

If a trip to the south of France is excluded this year, British may find a similar atmosphere on Barricane Beach.
Sometimes known as Shell Beach, Barricane Beach is in Woolacombe and is a popular surf spot.
The beautiful bay is also known for its ‘exotic sea shells’. Visit Devon explains: “Local folklore says that these shells of the banks of a Caribbean island have traveled thousands of kilometers across the Atlantic to be in a near-perfection state in this precious small inlet on the coast of North Devon.”
The Barricane Beach Cafe is open from 10 a.m. and serves a simple lunch menu. The famous Sri Lankan curries are served between 5 pm and 7 pm, but tourists must be aware that the café is only in cash.
Dogs are allowed to walk around on the beach freely between October and April, but must be a lead between May and September.
