Check tides before you go! (Liverpool bay should be ok, just add ten minutes on to the times) Try to time it so you get there 3 hours either side of high water (on about an 8 meter tide) as they do cover over. The walk down is slippery, so wear some good boots/wellies.

Very busy in the summer

Check the tides, very soft sand/mud so be careful going out further than the lighthouse. 

Any weather is good apart from rain.

Good sun sets and sun rises from this location.
