Liverpool coastline

Explore Liverpool Beaches and Coastline

Liverpool just has the one beach, that being Crosby Beach, but is the start of the Sefton coastline which stretches for 12 miles, all the way to Southport. The beach is famous for ‘Another Place’, the 100 iron men sculptors created by artist and sculptor Anthony Gormley. The iron men have become one of Merseyside’s most popular visitor attractions and bring people to Crosby beach from the world over.
