    Although a frequent visitor over the last 4 years this beach never fails to grab the imagination and enthral me. The concept behind to 100 identical sculptures may sound a little too artistic but the reality is that this is a really beautiful place enhanced by Gormley's work. Well worth a visit at any time of the year but if you are lucky enough to be there for a sunset on a summer's evening you are in for a treat.

    We visited on a cold and windy February day.A surreal experience. Wonderful.We stood on the beach with the figures around us. Wind turbines out at sea in front of us and big ships sailing out to sea.We went in the leisure centre for a coffee, to use the toilets and warm up.Will visit again when the weather is warmer to spend more time.

    Amazing, 100 ironcast bodies of Sir Anthony Gormley´s own naked body dispersed on the vast sandy beach, partly immersed at high tide, partly decorated according to the taste of the visitors, holiday makers , Sunday outing families Art for and with the people

    Cold windy February day.They were more spread out and less intrusive than we had expected - easily mistaken for people at a distance.Close up they are much nore attractive than we expected, maybe because most of them are covered in barnacles!

    First of all - the practical bit. Rather than head for the signed, official car park, you are better off just heading down to the leisure centre where you will find a car park right next to the beach. I guess this might get full in summer, but I suppose the official car park will as well, so on street parking would be your next best bet.The second bit of practical advice is to make sure you don't time your visit to coincide with high water, because when the tide is fully in most of the statues are submerged. My preference is for "mid tide" which allows you to see some full statues who seem to be looking in despair at the others who are in various degrees of submergence in the sea. This lends a real dramatic feel to the work which, somehow, is even more poignant in dull or wet weather.I have been meaning to visit these famous statues for some while and I was not disappointed when I finally saw them. In honesty, the only surprise was the scale of the piece. I hadn't realised that there were so many statues or that they covered so much of the beach. The local residents are rightly proud of these "iron men" and rightly so. In my view they are a national treasure.

    Had a lovely afternoon with friends here. Tide was out so we managed to walk out to quite a few statues. Helped that the sun was out and were virtually the only ones on the beach! Make sure you take your wellies as a little bit of quick sand and gets a bit muddy the further out you go!

    Over 100 statues just stood looking out to sea spread along a couple of miles of beach, but very dramatic.....even in driving rain and hail! Pity some idiots have poured paint over some of the figures. We were surprised how close to Liverpool it was. Access was easy and well signed.

    You can drive right upto the promenade with steps right in front of you down to the beach. The iron statues go for a few miles along the beach and are different heights they look great when the tide is coming in. I could spend a whole day there in nice weather

    Brilliant , wide open spaces with figures standing starkly in landscape, Sefton coastal path wortha walk

    Amazing sight, Figures are now weathered and some are covered in barnacles which enhances the character. Plenty of free parking but unfortunately toilet facilities are not good, leisure centres have to be used. A new cafe is being prepared near South Road which will help.I suppose I am lucky as I am 2 minutes walk from the beach!!

    Have wanted to visit for years and did not disappoint. Free and good to visit any time of the year. Each figure has weathered differently and takes on their own character. We went mid day and timed it for when the tide was at the lowest, so that we could see as many of the figures as possible but also went back at night to take some atmospheric pictures.Welles are a must if you want to wander a little further and can get rather 'boggy'Park At the leisure centre, ignore the signs to the official parking which is right at one end. There are toilets to use, and a 2 min walk to the beach.

    So many statues. So unusual. Check when the tide is in though to save a wasted journey. Can't see them at high tide

    Took my friend to see the iron men as they are known locally. Should have checked tide table first as tide was in and only a few bobbing heads and a few up to the chest in water still a sight to see though, ended up walking almost to the coastguard building...a good three mile circular walk. Walked back along Adelaide terrace with its lovely Georgian houses and well manicured gardens to the marina to sup a much need hot chocolate. Lovely new building with good food and spotlessly clean loos.

    I've wanted to see this for years and it was even better than I had imagined and I have to go again to walk the entire length of the display. It's wonderful.

    We headed to Crosby Beach to see this and with the tide being out we were able to walk out to the statues. Signage to the attraction is initially good however we ended up more by chance in a car park. The statues, some of which were wearing hats and scarfs left by previous visitors, were interesting to look at. Worth a walk out but to get the best from it make sure you go when the tide is out to get up close.
