Known for

The Royal Birkdale Golf Club (host of multiple Open Championships), the Lord Street (one of England's finest Victorian boulevards), the Southport Flower Show, the pier, and a Lancashire resort of Victorian grandeur

A little history

Southport grew as an elegant Victorian resort — Lord Street's glass-roofed arcades and broad boulevard influenced Haussmann's Paris boulevards (Napoleon III spent time here before designing Paris). Royal Birkdale has hosted 10 Open Championships. The Southport Flower Show is one of England's finest horticultural events.

📍 Local tip

Lord Street is genuinely magnificent — one of England's finest Victorian streets. Royal Birkdale for the Open Championship heritage. The Flower Show in August. The pier for the traditional seaside experience.
