New Brighton, Seaside resort in Merseyside, England

The New Brighton beach stretches along three-quarters of a mile of golden sand at the northeastern tip of the Wirral Peninsula, facing Liverpool across the Mersey.

James Atherton purchased land at Rock Point in 1830 to establish a residential area similar to Brighton, leading to the development of this coastal destination.

The Black Pearl stands as a community-built driftwood boat on the beach, functioning as both an art installation and a children's play structure.

Marine Point complex includes restaurants, shops, a cinema, and a theatre, with direct train connections from Liverpool arriving in 25 minutes.

Fort Perch Rock, constructed between 1825 and 1829, remains as a coastal defense structure that was originally isolated during high tide periods.
