About

Southport Waterfront stretches along the Marine Lake and the Marine Way bridge, with views across the estuary to the distant hills. The area is defined by its broad, tree-lined promenade and the long pier extending into the Irish Sea. The lake itself is a focal point for model boat sailing and hosts regular events.

The Victorian-era pier, one of the longest in the country, structures the view. Inland, the waterfront is flanked by formal gardens and the seasonal Southport Flower Show. The landscape is open and level, characterised by coastal grasses and the wide, shifting sands of the estuary at low tide.
