The installation is spread over 2 miles and the statues disappear and reappear with the tides.
Originally a temporary exhibition, it became a permanent fixture in 2007 due to its popularity.
Very thought provoking it represents human existence, migration, and our relationship with nature.
Do wear Suitable Footwear – The beach can be muddy, especially near the water.
The best viewing times are early morning for peaceful solitude, or sunset for a stunning view.
Dogs are welcome but be mindful of tide changes and occasional soft sand areas.
