This is clearly a nice with a lot going for it. Lovely views out to the bay and the wind turbines and plenty of space. Worth visiting to take a look at the Gormley sculptures, as they worship the rising sun. Downside to this is definitely its popularity and relative proximity to the nearby town. Big crowds here in the evening on a random Wednesday night. With big crowds come Bluetooth speakers and litter; the twin scourges of the modern age. So much litter; strewn far and wide. Ice cream van parked haphazardly at the entrance - weirdly branded Flannels. Is Mike Ashley into the ice cream market these days? 🤔 Definitely worth plotting your at quieter times. Probably worth it even if it’s raining, dark and blowing a gale. Car park by the leisure centre. Big, but not big enough for the summer. Amazing with a art installation! Crosby offers stunning sea views and the famous Another Place sculptures by Antony Gormley. The 100 iron figures standing in the sand create an eerie yet beautiful atmosphere, especially at sunset. A great spot for a peaceful walk, but be mindful of the tides. Easy to access from Liverpool. Definitely worth a visit! Very beautiful, easy access from Liverpool city center. I highly recommend visiting this place 😍 Great beach, not too overcrowded but there is plenty of space for everyone Sea is always quite far out but the sand is fab, not rocky and has great amenities around We had a great BBQ on the and got to see a fab sunset Another Place!!! It’s a must see, eerie, thought provoking and for me something I’ve wanted to see for a long time. More frequent users of the beautiful are clearly used to sharing the space with the 100 sculptures, that stand in silence looking towards the horizon. As the washes over them it makes you hold your breath. Personally,I loved it. But the Mrs couldn’t “see the point” it’s all about perspective and personal taste. I’d strongly recommend for the Art and I’m sure she would for the itself. Go enjoy. Beautiful to spend your day. Anyone irrespective of age can the place. is not suitable to take bath as it's muddy. But is and you can take food (as there is no other option inside or near the beach). Only one ice-cream bus is available near but it's very expensive. But if you 0.3miles from beach, you can find restaurants and shops A very long and with Gormley’s Statues everywhere. Great for a stroll. Wind turbines in the distance. Found quite a few jellyfish washed ashore. A lovely wide, at the mouth of the River Mersey, with views across to the fort and lighthouse of New Brighton. With ample car parking, a boating lake, children's play areas and the attraction of Anthony Gormley's "Another Place" installation, there is something here for most people. The itself is lovely, with miles of walking space and pleasant solitude once you get away from the car parking areas. Well worth a visit. Crosby is quiet and peaceful, not a busy tourist spot. I went on a weekday morning during low tide, and the seemed endless, perfect for a walk, collecting shells, or just enjoying the open space. After the tide went out, I saw lots of jellyfish, razor clam shells, and seashells scattered across the sand. The highlight is definitely the art installation: 100 life size cast iron figures standing across the beach, all facing the sea. At first, I thought they were people walking far out, but they turned out to be statues. Up close, with moss covering their faces and bodies, they look striking and a little eerie. There aren’t many facilities around (just the occasional ice cream van), so if you plan to stay longer, bring your own and snacks. Excellent for stretching of the legs and other activities. Tons of fresh air. Parking reasonably priced. We typically down to the indoor swimming pool (silver thing/ domed roof) and grab a cuppa at the affordably priced cafe. Toilets at the car park. Fair to good wheelchair access to promenade Nice few hours spent here, we got the train as staying nearby. Have read a lot about reviewers saying nothing there etc, well at least that means we are spared the awful seaside tat that usually accompanies these sort of places. We found it interesting and thought provoking, the statues are quite a spectacle, very pleased they were not removed. Our time spent there was a Tuesday afternoon and it was fairly quiet. Wouldn’t go on a weekend as it would probably get very busy but that’s no different to any other worth its salt I guess. Nice beach, a bit of fresh air and dog-friendly. Unlike Formby beach, you can park your car in Crosby public car park free of charge and have a very short to the (literally less than 1 min, no hills or whatever), you can also use the toilette in Crosby Leisure Centre (again Formby does not have this advantage). Like all the beaches in this area, is shallow, so forget about swimming! Crosby offers a pleasant spot to relax, with plenty of areas to and sit. While it isn’t the cleanest beach, it’s a good place to spend time outdoors. The tide often pulls the far from shore, creating a and expansive beachscape for visitors to enjoy. My dog's name of Crosby we have a lovely loads of memories there. But scary to be honest we can't go to the top, very strong current. Beware Visited here with the wife and children. Lovely beaches and where I was. Good atmosphere. A peaceful with a great and sculpture. Be cautious of the soft mud—it feels like quicksand. It wasn’t very when we visited; it only looks from a distance. Marian Lake nearby was also fine… Very weird beach. Very status they make the really one of a kind. I find this art very and creepy but in a good way. Fantastic beach. Very open and spacious. Bring some shelter though cause if it is sunny you will need it 👌🏻😉 Dogs were welcome too nobody frowned at us (I kept my dog on a leash but I saw dog running free too). Wonderful setting for whole day with picnic ❤️👌🏻 夕日が美しい 春以降がおすすめです。 Amazing in an amazing city Great views at this just a 15 minute train ride from Moorfields (Central Liverpool) but WATCH OUT FOR QUICKSAND! Got caught out here, had no idea this was even a thing in the UK, but ended up getting trapped on a ridge where there was a dip in the where all the collected, and made it impossible to cross back up to land as it wall all quicksand! Be careful when going out to sea. Amazing experience to see the statues, very eerie! Beautiful expanse of beach, very clean, rnli were present at the time.of our Very nice with interesting sculptures. Be careful during low tide. Could get muddy….😂😂 Lovely beach, lots of statues, dog friendly. Nice ice cream van Crosby is a wonderful place that feels magical in any weather. You can enjoy it whether it’s sunny, cloudy, or windy — the atmosphere is always special. The has a warm, calming energy that somehow comforts you the moment you arrive. Its beauty doesn’t just impress the eye, it genuinely warms the soul. A truly lovely place to spend time, recharge, and feel peaceful. Crosby in Liverpool is a hidden gem that beautifully combines nature, art, and history. On my recent visit, I was captivated by the breathtaking views of the coastline, stretching for miles with soft golden sands and gentle waves. The offers a peaceful retreat from the hustle and bustle of city life, making it an ideal spot for a leisurely stroll or a picnic with friends and family. One of the standout features of Crosby is the remarkable art installation, "Another Place" by Antony Gormley, which consists of 100 life-size cast iron figures that look out to sea. This attraction adds a thought-provoking element to the experience and creates a stunning visual contrast against the backdrop of the vast sky and water. The is well-maintained, with ample walking paths and areas to sit and relax. It’s also quite accessible, making it easy for everyone to enjoy its beauty. The surrounding area has a friendly atmosphere, with nearby cafes and facilities providing refreshments and services for visitors. While my experience at Crosby was mostly splendid, I would have appreciated more amenities, such as additional marked viewpoints and better signage. Nonetheless, the natural beauty and artistic allure of Crosby are undeniably impressive.
