Sefton Road

Alright, so you're heading to Formby Beach, yeah? And you're wondering about parking. Well, listen up. Sefton Road car park is your best bet, mainly 'cause it's FREE. Can't argue with that, can you? It's right there on Sefton Road itself, obviously, which puts you a decent walk from the beach – maybe 10-15 minutes depending on how fast your little 'uns are. It can get pretty rammed on a sunny weekend, especially during school holidays. Get there early doors to nab a space, seriously.

It's a proper car park, not just some bit of wasteland someone's decided to call parking. It's got a 5-star rating on Google, but let's be honest, it's only got one review, so don't get too excited. It's open 24/7, 'cause, well, it's a car park. You're not gonna ring 'em up, but just so you know, it's in Formby, Merseyside.

Look, it's free parking near Formby Beach. That's the main sell. Don't expect luxury, just a place to dump the car without getting a ticket. It's the best option for saving a few quid.

Word to the wise: take a carrier bag for your wet and sandy gear when you get back to the car. Trust me on this one.
