Barricane Beach, Woolacombe

Gorgeous beach! We visited in the evening so it was quiet. We enjoyed a stroll along the beach looking for shells.

Nice little cove. Sand very gritty. Went there looking for shells that apparently wash in from the Caribbean but none to be had. Little cafe there too for a drink or something to eat

Family friendly beach. Sandy and very few rocks or shells. Loads of spaces on beach esp during low tide. Rock pooling with crabs and small fishes. Two streams of water perfect for toddlers to splash about. Two toilets within a few mins walk, plus a few shops selling beach toys and RNLI life guards during holiday season. Water is cold so need wetsuits for body boarding. My children (10 & 8) had a smashing time. We came for a long weekend and came to this beach 4 days in a row. We’ll be back!

Absolutely beautiful and great fun for all the family, including dogs🙂 Paddle boarding is good but can't go too far as the current will potentially drag you towards the rocks.

When the tide is out the rocks are great for exploring. Lots of rock pools, shells etc. Beautiful scenery. Definitely recommend.

Really lovely little beach and nicer than visiting all of the busier bigger beaches. There is a small takeaway cafe down there with sandwiches and other things. The rock formations down here and very picturesque and fun to walk and climb around. Definitely worth a visit. You can park on the road above if you manage to find a space otherwise you will need to walk a short while to get there.

Such a beautiful hidden gem of a beach. Protected from the breeze and plenty of rock pools to explore. If you look carefully enough, there are lots of tiny exotic shells to be found .... look out for the Cowrie shells!

Don't miss out on the cafe food. Delicious authentic food served all day - especially the Sri Lankan curry from 5 - 7pm !!
