Interesting to see. The day we went it was hot and sunny so very busy, it was also extremely windy. I think I'd like to visit again on a quieter day
Skies that go on forever and the best Waterloo Sunsets. There was a lovely cool breeze on such a hot day when we last visited. You can't swim here as it has a red flag. Watch out for patches sinking sand/mud. Follow the beach safety notices and you should be fine.
It's a public sculpture exhibition, free entry, on Crosby which is a public access beach. We go often as it's the closest beach to us and we love the beach and Crosby has many restaurants, cafes, bars, ice cream parlours. You can access Gromle'ys sculptures which are on the beach and in the sea itself, from either the lake, the sports centre or Blundell Sands. Enjoy !
Yes - it's here . Strangely evocative ---- industrial blue collar port and subarban town stretched out across miles of coast > meets nature on the cool temperate stormy edge of the Irish sea. Be aware that sometimes the ancient and natural coal tar sands reveal themsleves making you suppose there has been a local oil spill - ---later to be covered up by ever shifting golden sands ....sometimes so fresh and bright that on a sunny summers day can make you think or Cornwall at its best or California (note to self --- need more of these days!)
Always check the tides, that way there will be something to see! We went at sunset, but dawn would be better as the light has a wonderful quality. As we were there in the evening all the locals were on the beach which added to the atmosphere significantly. The sand is soft and potentially dangerous, don't walk out to the far figures - I only went onto the edges of the wet sand and could feel my feet sinking! Absolutely loved our visit. Free to visit.
