Crosby beach is a huge sandy beach on the Irish Sea. The Burbo Bank windfarm is clearly visible offshore.
Sculptor Antony Gormley has installed 100 cast iron casts of himself looking out to sea. The installation is called Another Place.
You can run the beach or along the surfaced coast path so it's great for all weathers and states of tide.

If you enjoy seeing a few hundred metal representations of Anthony Gormley looking out to sea, complete with atomically correct metal penis but Kryten like metal nipple nuts then this is the place you. Don’t be fooled into thinking that the ones further out are drowning, they’re perfectly safe and metal. Well worth a visit especially as the sun is setting.
