Crosby Beach near Liverpool has been highly recommended to me by a trusty friend and what we found was inspiring. Although Crosby Beach is no Seaglass beach - we found that Sir Anthony Gormley’s work - Another Place, greeted us on a sunny early morning. 100 sculptures all based on the body of the artist, are set in various places across the beach and give a very peaceful feeling. All sculptures are facing the sea, looking as if they are pondering about what may come from the sea.

Crosby beach is doggy friendly, it also has the backdrop of the nearby docks and you can clearly see the cranes and working sites therein. The beach itself is all sand and is kept very clean. I made a short video which you can see below and you can also see some of the photos I took.

Parking was convenient, although I recommend you get there as early as you can. When we left, the car park was full - although it was sunday, and I would have thought that weekends are busy here.
