Morecambe Bay

#liverpooltrip Morecambe Bay is an estuary in north-west England, just to the south of the Lake District National Park. It is the largest expanse of intertidal mudflats and sand in the United Kingdom, covering a total area of 120 sq mi (310 km2). In 1974, the second largest gas field in the UK was discovered 25 mi (40 km) west of Blackpool, with original reserves of over 7 trillion cubic feet (tcf) (200 billion cubic metres). At its peak, 15% of Britain's gas supply came from the bay but production is now in decline. Morecambe Bay is also an important wildlife site, with abundant birdlife and varied marine habitats. A lovely place, vibrant with collours and plenty of sunshine! You can enjoy a cup of coffe at "The Beach Caffe" , you can visit the promenade, a lovely walk , you can see the Marina Bay with the few boats stranded , left for sale, and finally the Trafalgar point with a pitoresque view seated on a strategically positionned bench
