Mariners Road. Crosby Beach

Parking is available at the UFO-like Crosby Leisure Centre, from which a path leads over the dunes to the southerly end of Crosby Beach. From here, a short walk up towards the River Alt estuary brings the visitor to a series of iron-cast male figures each staring out to sea. This is the “Another Place” art installation, created by Turner Prize-winning artist Antony Gormley. At certain times, many of the installations are submerged by seawater. Get here as the high tide is starting to recede and marvel at the eerie sight of the figures gradually beginning to emerge from under the waves.
