Beach bar in the UK actually looks like it could be in Ibiza

People are flooding to social media in awe of a UK beach bar being compared to Ibiza.

Granted, we would all rather have the expendable cash to be able to jet off to Ibiza whenever we fancied some sun, cocktails and a beach party.

However, given the cost of living crisis and the impending doom of potential airport queues, how about a UK travel alternative?

Grab your swimmies, sunhat and maybe a jumper - because let's not lie, there's only so much we can hope for with the climate in Britain.

Think bright blue seas, soft yellow sand and a scenic sunrise as you sip your Aperol Spritz and block out the slight shivers you've got - bar the temperature you might as well be in Ibiza.

Reportedly crowned 'Britain's best beach', the beach hosts 'weddings, exclusive stays and events' and has 'unbeatable views' - oh and your pup can join you on your holiday too.

The beach which has all the influencers shrieking?

And as if the venue wasn't Ibiza enough already for you, it's also hosting two day festivals in July.

The first is on 14 July, called 'A History of Drum & Bass' and the second takes place the next day, titled 'Ibiza Classics'.

Forget the price of plane tickets or your eyes beginning to leak tears of exasperation as you realise the price of a check-in bag costs the same as your flight. The price of a ticket to one of the day festivals is stated on Lusty Glaze Beach's website as £40.00 plus a £3.50 booking fee. And if you fancy going VIP, it'll set you back £100 with a £5.00 booking fee.

Considering how much you pay to get into clubs in Ibiza - let alone for a bottle of water when inside - it's a fraction of the price, and you don't even need to bring your passport.

People are flocking to TikTok in response to user Hannah Rebecca who's shared videos of the beach with followers.

In awe of the hidden gem located in the UK, one user said: "I've been here. Most calming and beautiful place."

"WE NEED TO GO," another commented.

A third wrote: "This is where I want to get married."

"This place is heaven I think," a fourth added.

And a final resolved: "I saw the kooks perform here and it is one of my favourite memories."
