Geocache Description:

For a visit to the Wyre Estuary Country Park of  course!  A nice walk along the riverside, the natural play area for the kids, a picnic perhaps? Or to pick up a few geocaches? That's more like it! Congrats to cometbill for FTF.

The Wyreside Visitor Centre is by the car parks, with leaflets and info on guided walks, health walks and cycle routes. There's also a cafe. Beside the car park is the Stanah slipway and views of the saltmarshes of the Wyre Estuary. Further up the estuary you can see Fleetwood and Knott End and on a clear day in the distance, the Lake District Fells. Across the river you can see the rolling farmland at Preesall and Staynall. In the opposite direction there is a nice walk down river to Skippool Creek. Parking is available there too. There should now be five caches along this up river stretch. See also the Yacht Club and numerous other boats in various states of disrepair seemingly marooned, awaiting the next high tide. Occasional very high tides can reach the path! About 0.5m from car park.
