New Brighton Beach

New Brighton Beach is a pleasant seaside resort in Merseyside, around a 25-minute journey on the Merseyrail from Liverpool city centre. I visited here after a recommendation from a friend. The water was pristine, and the views were really pleasant. It was a nice place to visit to spend some time. Even though I visited on a Saturday in mid-April, it wasn’t overly busy, and while there were still families and people, it still had a relaxing and peaceful vibe, which I liked. There are free public toilets as well as a number of bars and restaurants, including Marino Lounge and Nando’s overlooking the beach, as well as other businesses nearby, such as a Hungry Horse Pub, Starbucks, The Light Cinema and Morrisons. I do feel when the tide is out, it can feel a little desert-like with really dry sand, but that’s just nature, I guess. It’s worth a visit if you’re in the area for sure.

We went during Easter it was bit of a rush. But it was a nice sunny day. Parents out with their kids it’s a nice place to walk around the beach with all the markets and food stalls close by. Sitting on the bench enjoying the breeze with a slice of pizza and a drink was just perfect for us.

Enjoyed an invigorating walk on New Brighton Beach. At low tide, the wide expanse of sand seemed to stretch for miles. Maybe not the most picturesque outlook towards the cranes of the container port, but there were certainly a lot of interesting things to see, from the Napoleonic era fort and the lighthouse to spotting the well-known landmarks of Liverpool's iconic skyline in the distance, and watching cargo vessels and ferries come and go along the River Mersey. The soft clean sand is ideal for families and dog walkers, but if you're planning to go for a paddle or a swim, it's vital to check the tide times because the tide here advances very quickly and you can easily get cut off. There's free parking, toilets inside the Floral Pavilion, a funfair and amusements for the kids, cafes galore, a shopping centre and a Morrisons supermarket, all within a short walk from the beach.
