Blackburn, beste Strände

Unfortunately, there are signs indicating that dogs are not allowed on the beach between certain locations from May to, I believe, October. I forgot to take photos of the signs, but they did mention a fine if you're caught walking your dog on the beach. I assume this rule is in place because some owners don't clean up after their pets. Additionally, be cautious of rip tides and quicksand, so it might not be a good idea to stray too far from the dry sandy beach when the tide is out.

We parked at the car park at Formby Point and took a short stroll to reach the beach. The beach is absolutely beautiful, stretching out as far as the eye can see. It was a delightful experience walking on the beach, and the sand dunes added an extra element of fun. No matter your age, you can still enjoy climbing to the top and sliding down the dunes. I highly recommend visiting Formby Beach for a great time.

Visited this place on a day in August and was extremely disappointed to find that the tide didn't come in until 7:30 PM! The kids were left with a beach that didn't even have clear sand; it was all black underneath and not soft enough to play in. With no water and the day being very hot, it was a letdown. However, the scenery nearby was pleasant, especially around the lake with swan and flamingo boat rides. The boat rides cost £15 for 30 minutes (you have to time yourself on a mobile) and accommodate only 4-5 people at a time. Two people need to paddle with their feet, which can get a bit tiring. There are also other boats on the opposite side that charge £5 for adults and £4 for children each. Overall, it's a nice place for a stroll, but if there's no tide, I wouldn't recommend bringing your children!

Peaceful and conveniently accessible. Located away from the town, it's quiet and serene. Free parking is available along the roadside, right next to the dunes. Please keep it tidy and clean for the sake of future generations.

Wir sind stolz auf unsere Gemeinschaft und die Bemühungen, die wir unternehmen, um eine nachhaltige Umwelt zu erhalten. Die Säuberung der Ufer des Flusses Mersey und Wirral ist für mich seit vielen Jahren eine lohnende Tätigkeit. Ich kombiniere gerne Müllsammeln mit Spaziergängen in der Natur, schaffe Kunst aus den Gegenständen, die ich finde, und fördere das Recycling. Es ist wichtig, unsere Kinder in diese Bemühungen einzubeziehen und zu erziehen.

Wir überquerten glücklich den Ausgangspunkt und erkundeten den Buchtradweg. Wir hatten eine tolle Zeit und werden es auf jeden Fall noch einmal machen... und noch mehr.
