High tides expected for 5 days in Southport so beach car park will be closed

High tides expected at Southport over the next 5 days.  Plan ahead before you visit as there will be no beach car parking available.   You might want to plan your visit for another time.

Beach car parks at Southport and Ainsdale are generally open every day between 1st April and 30th September each summer. However, they do need to close or be reduced in size depending on tidal and weather conditions, sometimes for organised events (such as the Southport Air Show) and at other times as determined by the Council (e.g. pollution incidents).
