The sandy beach and dunes at Talacre are very popular. Dogs (and horses) are allowed.  The Ice Cream Farm is pleasant, welcoming and busy. There are several other pubs and cafe's in close proximity to the beach car park.

In August 2009, the BBC reported that planning permission had been sought to erect a "human sculpture" inspired by the reported ghostly sightings on the lighthouse balcony. This application was made by then owner James McAllister who intended it to serve as a "serious art installation". Local artist Angela Smith was contracted to design the 7 foot stainless steel ‘lighthouse keeper’ with the initial planning permission being approved for a three-year period. Permission was not sought to retain the structure after this point and the sculpture was relocated.
