Description
Crosby Beach is the picturesque beginning to 22 miles of Sefton Coastline. From the shore visitors can enjoy views across the sea to Wirral and North Wales hills.
A walk along the beach allows views across to Wirral and North Wales. Due to the beaches close proximity to the Port of Liverpool, visitors can often marvel at huge container ships and cruise ships that pass by. The Burbo Bank offshore wind farm can be seen from the shore and adds to the unique coastal/industrial/artistic landscape that makes Crosby Beach so unique.
Crosby Beach is where you can see some of the finest sunsets in the country. The opening to the Irish Sea leaves uninterrupted views as the sun seemingly melts into the ocean.
The cherry on the cake of this area of coastline is internationally acclaimed artist 'Antony Gormley's 'Another Place' installation. Crosby Beach is the permanent home to 100 cast-iron figures that stretch the coastline and almost a mile out to sea.
Please Note - Crosby beach is a non-bathing beach with areas of soft sand and mud and a risk of changing tides. Visitors should stay within 50 metres of the promenade at all tides and not attempt to walk out to the furthest figures.
If you’d like to visit Crosby Beach, Merseyrail operate regular services from Liverpool Central and Moorfields stations in the city centre to Blundellsands and Crosby station, which is a short stroll away from the attraction.
