Latest reviews on Newcastle-under-Lyme's beaches

Formby Beach
8 Landon Jex

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.

Talacre Beach
10 Abigail Feltham

This was my first time at this beach and I absolutely enjoyed it. There are designated areas for walking along the coast paths, which is great for those who enjoy it. Additionally, there are plenty of beautiful scenery and opportunities for taking photos. With ice cream shops nearby, it's a perfect day out for families. The beach is spacious and I believe many people will have a great time here. I'm already excited for my next visit.

Crosby Beach
10 Renzo Harper

This beach is truly unique. With around 100 iron statues scattered throughout the beach and water, and the Liverpool docks in the background, the scenery is absolutely stunning. It's a perfect spot for a leisurely walk or to let the kids run around and burn off some energy.

Leasowe Beach
8 Evelyn Lark

This beach is a fantastic and safe spot for walking your dog. It's clean and beautiful, but just be aware that there are no restroom facilities, which is why I'm giving it 4 stars. On weekends, a coffee van now sets up in the beachside car park. Keep in mind that it can get extremely crowded on weekends, especially on Sunday mornings.

Prestatyn beach
10 Fral

The beach was really nice and well-maintained. Unfortunately, the tide was high when I visited, but I'm looking forward to coming back soon. Additionally, there's a nearby arcade which is quite convenient.

Ainsdale Beach
10 Shara Evergreen

What a beautiful beach! You have the option to park directly on the beach for £10, or you can choose to park at a nearby small carpark, a bit further up towards the Ainsdale and Birkdale Sandhills LNR at the Sand Hills Nature Trail. The carpark operates on a pay and display system, and it cost us £2.10 for 5 hours. The beach is well-maintained, with plenty of clean public toilets available. The water and sand are absolutely gorgeous.

The warmest month during the year in this area is August, with the air temperature rising up to 17.7°C and the water temperature up to 16.1°C. The coldest month is January, with the air temperature dropping down to 8.1°C and the water temperature down to 9.3°C.
