The best area to stay in Southport for beaches is along the Promenade and surrounding areas, particularly around Marine Lake.


This area is the heart of Southport's seaside appeal, stretching along the coast. You'll find direct access to the beach and attractions like the Southport Pier, which extends over a kilometre into the sea. The Promenade itself is a long, pleasant walk with views of the coast, and Marine Lake offers opportunities for boating.


For families, staying near the Promenade is a great choice. It puts you within easy reach of the beach for sandcastle building and paddling. Nearby attractions like the miniature railway and the splash park provide plenty of entertainment for children, all without needing to travel far.


Couples looking for a relaxing seaside break will also enjoy this area. The hotels along the Promenade often offer sea views, and it's superb for romantic strolls along the beach at sunset or a leisurely walk to the pier.

For top beach hotels in Southport that offer water sport activities, the Scarisbrick Hotel is a good option.

The most popular time to stay in a beach hotel in Southport is during the summer months, particularly July and August. You'll find the warmest weather then, with average temperatures hovering around 20°C, creating ideal conditions for days spent by the sea. This period is great for enjoying Southport's sandy beaches, strolling along the pier, or perhaps even a round of golf at one of the championship courses. The longer daylight hours mean you can make the most of outdoor activities and enjoy seaside walks as the sun sets.


For those seeking a slightly different experience, May presents a wonderful alternative. The weather is pleasantly mild, typically reaching around 15°C, which is still lovely for exploring the coastline and enjoying outdoor attractions. During May, you may find better value for your beach hotel stay, and it can be easier to secure reservations at the more sought-after establishments and popular restaurants.

The primary beach activity to enjoy in Southport is a leisurely walk along the expansive coastline, particularly at Ainsdale Beach or along the Pier.


Ainsdale Beach is a designated Local Nature Reserve, offering vast stretches of sand and dunes, making it superb for long, undisturbed strolls. It's a popular spot for kite buggying and land yachting, so you'll often see these activities taking place, adding to the visual interest of your walk. The beach is accessible by car, with parking available directly on the sand in designated areas during low tide.


For a more traditional seaside experience, a walk along Southport Pier is a must. It's the second-longest pier in the country, stretching over a kilometre out to sea. From here, you can enjoy panoramic views of the coastline and, on a clear day, even see the distant Blackpool Tower. At the end of the pier, there's a pavilion with a cafe and a small arcade.
