About Southport Marine Drive Car Park
Alright, so you're heading into town and need somewhere to dump the car? Southport Marine Drive Car Park is usually my go-to. It's right on the front, as you might guess from the name, so dead handy for the shops on Lord Street or a walk along the pier. Google reviews are sitting pretty at 4.2 stars from 117 reviews, which isn't bad at all for a car park, is it?
Now, it's not the cheapest spot, especially in peak season, but you're paying for the location, let's be honest. It's open 24/7, which is useful if you're staying out late or catching an early train. It can get pretty rammed on weekends and during events like the Air Show though, so be prepared to circle a bit or maybe have a backup plan.
It's a pretty standard car park, nothing fancy – just tarmac and parking spaces. You pay at the machines before you leave; they take card and cash, so you're covered either way.
Worth knowing: on a sunny day, the spaces closest to the sea fill up fast, so if you're desperate for a view while you wrestle with your shopping, get there early!
