Get to the Wallasy tunnel and follow signs to Newbrighton, pass Max Spealmans on right over road bridge, turn left into North Wirral Coastal Park. Approx. 1 mile from the tunnel exit. The parking area overlooks the beach area.
Please abide by usual kiting rules. You must kite between the lifeguard tower and the lighthouse also leave 300m clear of rock sea defenses as they are a roosting bird site. Be cautious of the tide you must stay a minimum of 100 m from sea wall at high tide. On anything over 8.5m tide the water will come up to the wall. Also landboarding is now prohibited on the beach as there is too much activity on the beach. Landboarding has been moved to Meols which is much quieter and safer location.
The Liverpool city center is only 1 mile and a tunnel ride away.
