Locks Heath - all beaches

Stunning location with ample parking. Includes a café and restroom amenities.

The serene beach boasts of vibrant huts and an array of water sports to indulge in while relishing on some refreshing beverages. However, the beach is situated quite far from the city, making it imperative to have your own means of transportation as buses are infrequent, arriving only once an hour.

This splash park may be small, but it was a delightful place to visit. The kids had an absolute blast, and the adjacent playground provided a perfect combination of fun activities. While there are a few tables available in the splash park area, the playground could really use some benches to allow parents to sit and watch their children more comfortably.

We had a great time at the amusement arcade on the pier that overlooks the beach. The person in charge was really friendly and laid-back when it came to handling the tickets and prizes, which the kids absolutely loved. They even mentioned that compared to other arcades, the prizes were better in terms of the number of tickets we earned. It's worth noting that the 'Quik Drop' machine was a big hit among those with quick reflexes, as it gave out a lot of tickets. Although the arcade could use a bit of cleaning, we understand that it was a busy bank holiday at a popular seaside destination. All in all, it's a fantastic place to have some fun and try your luck at winning awesome prizes!

This beach is perfect for taking a leisurely stroll and admiring the scenery. The town center has plenty of options for dining and drinking nearby. At the northern end of the beach, there are huts where you can observe planes landing at the Solent Airport.

We had an amazing time with our kids. The beach was pristine, with crystal clear water and no tide. There were plenty of activities and eateries for the kids to enjoy.
