Beautiful beach, the back car park nearest the beach is free with blue badge up to 3 hours so we just paid for a few hours after that. Only thing it's the sea is very far out but obviously cannot be helped. Next to the Toby carvery car park there's the lifeboat you can go in for free and see the life boat which was a lovely experience!

If you're looking for a relaxing, clean, traditional British seaside day out, Lytham St Anne's Beach is an excellent choice. It's especially good for families and those who prefer a quieter coastal atmosphere over the crowds of larger resorts. Toilets do require a small fee.

It was a very good environment. Although it will take a long walk before you reach the beach but I love it. All the kids played in the water and we explored the nearby local areas. However, there is no enough parking spaces close to the beach but if you dont mind to walk, there are some free 2 hours parking areas plus pay car park around Sainsbury which is not expensive. Overall, we all enjoyed our outing and we will visit again.

Lovely. Miles of golden sand but a long walk out to the sea for a paddle. Lots of fun activities for the kids not far from the pier and also a good amount of places to eat. We only went for the day and it was busy, as it was the half term holidays, but there's plenty of places to go to, if you'd like it a bit quieter.
