Free coastal park north of Liverpool featuring Antony Gormley's Another Place iron figure installations, pram-friendly coastal paths, safe paddling, and a dog-friendly beach. Parking is very affordable.
๐ Funzaroo Verdict
Best for families who want a proper seaside walk with a cultural talking point built in - the iron figures spark conversation for all ages. Dogs are very welcome and the beach is safe for paddling and crabbing. Arrive in the late afternoon in summer to combine beach time with a spectacular sunset.

โVery interesting place to visit , you can imagine the devastation that was caused in the Blitz around Liverpool. Interesting to see the different bricks etc made around the country some dating back to 1860. Anyone interested in researching that kind of stuff there is a great website telling you all about those bricks and images as well which are from the beach. Worth a tripโ

โWe take the dog here whilst visiting relatives every time. We don't live near the coast and we all live this stretch of coast. Great for the dog to run about on. She loves it. Always great to have a look at the statues in the sand. Easy to get to. Lots of parking. Safe area that is popular with dog owners. You could walk for miles on this beach.โ

โWe love going here for both family days out, short or long walks, or even just an evening drink. Parking is crazy cheap, and free after a certain time. The beach is only a ten minute walk from the car parks. The play park and marina are immediately outside of the car park area. There's a pond with swans and ducks, even a black Swan can sometimes be spotted! The marina lake is a great spot for crabbing, and the nearby shops sell everything you would need. The beach itself isn't the safest for a swim, I'd only recommend a quick paddle or wet walk, but it's absolutely beautiful. From the iron men art display, to how the sun falls on it as it sets. There's plenty of space to set up for the day with the family, and plenty to eat at the bus yard if you forget your picnic, as well as fantastic cocktails at the bar, and often live music. All in all a great place to visitโ

Overview
Crosby Coastal Park stretches along the Lancashire coast with Antony Gormley's 100 cast-iron figures standing across the beach and into the sea. Pram-friendly paths run the length of the park. The beach suits paddling and crabbing and not swimming. A play area and marina sit near the car parks. Refreshment vans appear regularly, and sunset views over the Mersey draw evening visitors.
