Crosby Coastal Park — Attraction in Sefton

A 360 pano image of the market area at Salt and Tar.

The large area has been used for many reasons at various events. EFP Drone Footage was at Salt and Tar on June 27-28, as it was host to another successful weekend with the main focus centred on a group of local young entrepreneurs who were running their own market stalls at Salt and Tar for the teen market weekend.

Tv camera crews for BBC's The One Show were on site on Saturday, July 27, to film the teen market.

This is great news for everyone who has worked so hard to build something for the locals to enjoy.

This area will be hosting another market on July 3 and 4, 2024, this time held by BlueBell Stalls.

And in August this will become the place where people will dance the days away as Status Quo, Tom Jones, and Red Rum Club arrive on the 17th and 17th.

The main stage will be on the Washington Parade end of the market area with the crowd facing the Docks and our amazing sunset.

This 360 pano was taken at 21:15, after a red hot Sunday at Salt and Tar.

The pano was created during blue hour, which is just after sunset, giving it this...

I have wanted to visit Antony Gormly's wonderful sculptures on Crosby beach, for such a long time but I never came up this way until this week, to look after a friend's dogs. The installation entitled 'Another Place' is fabulous, magical, very thought provoking, I loved it. The statues are quite far apart. There are 100 in total. I couldn't see all of them as I have bad back pain and can't walk very far, but what I did see was just fantastic and well worth the wait. There are quite large car parks at either end of the beach but these fill quickly on summer days. The beach itself is approached down several steep steps and is not equipped for wheelchair users. It is sandy and great for families with young children. I don't know how safe it is to swim there, I didn't spot any red flags but the shallows would definitely be fine for paddling. Take a flask and sarnies, there were no nearby shops that I could see. There is a cafe somewhere, but too far from where I...

We love going here for both family days out, short or long walks, or even just an evening drink. Parking is crazy cheap, and free after a certain time. The beach is only a ten minute walk from the car parks. The play park and marina are immediately outside of the car park area. There's a pond with swans and ducks, even a black Swan can sometimes be spotted! The marina lake is a great spot for crabbing, and the nearby shops sell everything you would need. The beach itself isn't the safest for a swim, I'd only recommend a quick paddle or wet walk, but it's absolutely beautiful. From the iron men art display, to how the sun falls on it as it sets. There's plenty of space to set up for the day with the family, and plenty to eat at the bus yard if you forget your picnic, as well as fantastic cocktails at the bar, and often live music.

All in all a great...
