Cloud Bar at Anderby Creek
Highlight • Beach
It's perched on a sand dune with panoramic views of the North Sea and the Lincolnshire Wold hills.
It was installed in 2009 by the Cloud Appreciation Society and is free and publicly accessible. Don't be fooled into thinking there's an actual bar here! It's essentially a designed wooden structure which replaced disused beach shelter. On the viewing platform are ‘Cloud Menus’ identifying the different formations, mirrors that can be swiveled to reflect different parts of the sky.
