One of the UK’s beaches has been compared to Hawaii with its breathtaking waterfalls and white sands. The dreamy seaside location has been touted as perfect for a staycation. Woody Bay, on the Devon coast, is the perfect spot for those seeking stunning waterfalls and picturesque views.
The beach has breathtaking waterfalls and even a Victorian bath pool, reports Bristol Live.
The beach can be accessed through a woodland path before heading down to the white sand and rocky shore.
It’s surrounded by cliffs that are covered in greenery and the water is clear on sunny days.
Sharing a video of the beach on Instagram, CJexplores said: “Isn’t it magical!? Located in North Devon, on Exmoor NP’s coastline. There’s a small car park near a path that leads to the beach.
“The path zig-zags down through woodland & is fairly steep! (Approx. 20 mins down/ 30 mins uphill). Please leave no trash.”
Thousands of people liked the post and dozens commented. One person said: “Wow! Looks like Hawaii”.
Another added: “Can’t believe this is England!” While a third noted: “I would have never expected this in the UK! So beautiful.”
The beach is also well rated on TripAdvisor. One person wrote: “A beautiful little bay nestled amongst ancient twisted oak trees.

A stunning walk down from the top carpark is well worth the effort and an excellent opportunity to improve your fitness on the way back up! The pictures sum it up….. tranquil, serene and an amazing location.”
Another said: “Amazing place to visit, a long walk down and certainly back up but well worth it. Take a picnic and relax on the beach. Check out the waterfall, it’s stunning.
”Do your research on the place before you go and then when there hunt for the parts the history mention. Fabulous little gem”
Woody Bay isn’t the first UK beach to make waves in recent weeks. In a video that got hundreds of views on TikTok, @ventureuk called another beach the “most insane beach in the UK”.
It showed off the waterfall, “huge cave”, white sands and blue water of Nanjizal Beach in Cornwall.
Meanwhile, nudist beach in the UK has been compared to the Caribbean thanks to its soft sands, crystal-clear waters and gorgeous surrounding scenery.
Pedn Vounder, in Cornwall, is a nudist-friendly beach on the south coast known for its towering cliff, bright blue waters and white sand. It can be accessed either by boat or on food through a coastal path along the beach.
