Large area of beach, sand dunes and pine woods

This ever-changing sandy coastline set between the sea and Formby town offers miles of walks through the woods and dunes. Glimpse a rare red squirrel or see a historic landscape levelled for asparagus.

Prehistoric animal and human footprints can sometimes be found in silt beds on the shoreline.
