Date spot in Liverpool

Crosby Beach and Another Place

Walk the beach among Antony Gormley's Another Place: 100 cast-iron figures standing along the sand, all looking out to sea.

  • Outdoors
  • Free
  • Out of town

Why it's a good date: A short train ride out and you're on a wide, windswept beach with a hundred silent companions. Go for sunset, and stay off the soft sand near the figures furthest out: the tide comes in fast.
