  2. Top Tips For An Unforgettable Day Out At Adventure Coast Southport

Top tips for a day out at Adventure Coast Southport in 2026

No family holiday or day out in Southport is complete without a visit to theme park Adventure Coast.

The fun never runs out.  The stories will stick with you forever.

This year brings a brand-new way to experience the park, with free entry for all visitors.

With four themed lands, classic seaside fun, and exciting new additions for the 2026 season, Adventure Coast offers a day out that works your way.

One of the best things about Adventure Coast is the flexibility. With no entry fee, you’re free to enjoy the atmosphere, the food and drink outlets and pick and choose your favourite rides.

So let's explore the delights that await in Adventure Coast's four unique zones, each packed with rides, attractions, and character.

Viking Landing

Let's begin the adventure with Viking Landing, the land where myths and legends come alive. It’s a fun-packed, family-friendly Viking adventure, inspired by the brave warriors who settled in Merseyside many centuries ago.

Will you ride through the sky on Odin’s Little Dragon Coaster? Or explore the hidden nooks of Freya’s Fun House?

Steampunk Bay

Leave the lands of Vikings behind and head to retro-futuristic setting on Steampunk Bay.  All the fun and atmosphere of a Victorian fair – with a futuristic twist.

Explore an immersive realm where dreams are powered by steam. If it’s steel and speed you’re after, this is the land for you.

Do you dare to feel your heart race on Paradox, Enigma, Ultra and the Flying Chairs? Can you summon up the courage to face the night frights of the Ghost Train?

Pirate Cove

Shiver your timbers at Pirate Cove as you step back in time with a host of pirate rides.

Whether you’re taking a trip on the Ghostly Galleon, whizzing down Blackbeard’s Falls or exploring Dock Fun House, there’s something for everyone in this zone.

Cartoon Boardwalk

A themed land where families make memories to keep.

Enter the gates to find a riot of colour, carnival games and cartoon-themed rides. Throw in some classic American snacks at Della’s Diner and you’ve got a magical day out on your hands.

This is our final stop off around the four themed zones, but no need to worry...the fun isn't over just yet.

Photoshoot Viking Golf

Surrounding attractions

The adventure continues beyond the walls of the park.

Viking Golf has become a huge favourite with Southport residents in recent years. This mythical mini-golf course is an experience that the whole family can enjoy!

The Lakeside Miniature Railway (the world’s oldest continuously running 15-inch gauge railway) offers families a scenic and gentle ride beside the Marine Lake.
