Located on the tip of the Dee Estuary, the Point of Ayr is a wide stretch of beach defined by its old lighthouse. The area, an RSPB reserve, is home to a diverse population of seabirds. The beach is very easy to access.

In August 2009, the BBC reported that planning permission had been sought to erect a "human sculpture" inspired by the reported ghostly sightings on the lighthouse balcony. This application was made by then owner James McAllister who intended it to serve as a "serious art installation".

Local artist Angela Smith was contracted to design the 7 foot stainless steel ‘lighthouse keeper’ with the initial planning permission being approved for a three-year period. Permission was not sought to retain the structure after this point and the sculpture was relocated.
