Morecambe Attractions
Morecambe (pop. 42,000 including Heysham), situated on the coast in the middle of the bay of the same name, is exceptional not only for its sandy beach and the attractions of a busy seaside town but also for the beautiful countryside of its hinterland. Diverse wildlife and abundant bird species are another attraction for many tourists.
At ebb tide it is possible to walk across Morecambe Bay on marked paths. From Heysham there are day trips to the Isle of Man and boats depart for Belfast.
