Marine Lake Boat Ticket Office

Right, so the Marine Lake Boat Ticket Office... it's where you get your tickets for the boats on the Marine Lake, funnily enough. It's right there in the town centre, you can't miss it. If you're bringing the kids to Southport, a boat ride on the lake is one of those things you just *do*, isn't it? Something to tell the grandkids about one day.

It's an outdoor thing, obviously, so weather is a factor. They're not daft, so they only run the boats when it's not chucking it down. It's a seasonal thing too, mainly running during the warmer months. Google says they've got a 3.6 rating from 11 reviews, so make of that what you will. I've never had any problems myself, but I'm not exactly reviewing it on Google, am I?

Don't expect anything fancy. It's a ticket office. You buy tickets. You get on a boat. Simple as that. But the lake itself is decent, and a nice way to spend an hour or so if the sun's out. And if you're a golfer, it's dead handy for a quick trip on the lake after you've finished on the course.

Just keep an eye on the weather forecast before you head down, or you might be disappointed. No one wants to get stuck on a pedalo in the rain!
