    The attraction of Southport pier is that it's entrance is on the Promenade but you cannot actually see the sea from here! This is because Southport has a large, very large marine lake with islands in it and surrounded by gardens. Walking the first part of the pier is like walking over a couple of bridges but it is definitely the Pier. First you pass over part of the lake with sailing boats from Southport Sailing club and hired rowing boats and pedallos. People are walking around the lake underneath the pier. Then you cross over an island in the lake and over the lake again. On this side of the lake you pass over the minature railway line which runs alongside the lake. Then you pass by a skateboard park which you can look down onto. Just after this point you can leave or enter the pier via a set of steps from the road below. Yes the coastal road runs under the pier and this is like a second promenade, but with actual sea views! Land around here was redeveloped in the 1980s and now there is a retail complex, a hotel, cinema and restaurants, all next to the pier. It is unlike any other pier in the country! Once the pier passes over the coastal road you are finally above sand. And the rest of your walk may be all above sand because the tide at Southport goes out a very long way. The end of the pier isn't that impressive compared to some piers but there is a nice modern restaurant, some amusements and the penny slot machine museum which is interesting. So Southport pier, oh! did I not mention the train? Many years ago, Southport pier had a minature train on rails, then that got replaced with a road train. In the 1980s the pier underwent some cosmetic improvements which saw the criss crossing light poles installed and the new restaurant too. In the 90s, a new tram was installed but which was really nice but for some reason it was taken away and Southport pier is left with a small road train once again. So Southport pier, it's different!
