The Northern England / Yorkshire / Merseyside region
This wonderful stretch of unspoilt coastline set between the sea and Formby town offers miles of walks through the woods and dunes. There are interesting plants and birds to be found, and this is one of the last places in England where visitors may catch a glimpse of the rare red squirrel.
Liverpool / Formby area
There are lovely walks to the shore through the nature conservancy and National Trust pinewoods where there is a red squirrel reserve.
Formby is a National Trust Nature Reserve, home to a thriving red squirrel colony and is one of the few remaining places in England where they have survived. The pinewoods at the reserve were planted in the 1920s to stabilise the dunes and shelter Formby. The area is also home to excellent golf courses including Formby Golf Course, which hosted the Curtis Cup in 2004.

Sefton's Natural Coast The sand dunes, beaches and marshes of the Sefton Coast are one of the most important areas for nature conservation in Europe. The Sefton Coast is also an important visitor destination with popular bathing beaches and open countryside. The Sefton Coast is the perfect setting for those who want to get away from it all and explore. And with 21 miles of beach, sand dunes, woodland and farmland, the area is a haven for flora and fauna. It is an area of open space and tranquility close to the urban centres of Liverpool, Formby, and Southport, and easily reached by car or public transport. Each year thousand of people visit Sefton's coast and countryside sites, whether for a family day out or a quiet walk through the countryside.
Nature and Wildlife The area is internationally important for its rare dune habitats and species, including reptiles and amphibians such as the Sand Lizard and Natterjack Toad. The extensive coastal pinewoods support a thriving population of Red Squirrels. It is also one of Europe's major birdwatching locations and to date more than 300 different bird species have been recorded. The RSPB's Marshside Nature Reserve is one of the most important places in the country for wintering wildfowl and Martin Mere Wildlife and Wetlands Trust is the largest international wetland conservation charity in the UK.
Activities The Sefton Coast has much to offer from, walking and bird-watching to cycling, horse riding and para-karting. A network of footpaths, bridleways and cycle trails weave their way through the woodlands and into the dunes making the coast a very accessible place to visit. Some of the walks combine walking with finding out about the surrounding environment, making them both educational and enjoyable. There are several cycle trails in and around Sefton the most notable of these being the Trans-Pennine Trail which starts and ends at Southport and stretches across the country to Hull and Hornsea on the East Coast.
Beaches The Sefton Coast has been very successful having the quality of its beaches recognised. Lifeboat Road, Ainsdale and Southport have both been awarded the ENCAMS Seaside Award for 2005. Beaches at Ainsdale and Southport are designated as bathing beaches and Ainsdale Beach has just received the Blue Flag Award for 2006.
Education Sefton Coast and Countryside Service sites offer excellent opportunities for educational activities with many schools and universities visiting the coast for a variety of reasons. For more information on Sefton's Natural Coast please visit the Sefton's Natural Coast website

Please do not play loud music or engage in any activity which may cause inconvenience to your neighbours after 9.30 pm or before 07.00 am.
