What a lovely place to spend a sunny day with kids and friends! Beautiful marine lake, at the end of a gorgeous promenade. There is a huge green space with a wide, well equipped play area right next to it.

I have been a few times and it’s great especially for kids. Have taken a paddleboard out and while not massive is a fun calm area to paddle around and swim in. The parking can get very busy and not a lot of local options so would suggest arriving early as a few times have had to space stall for a while before getting a space. Water is a little murky but is clean and a little warmer than the ocean would be.

Stumble across this place by pure chance. Will be going back but with my paddleboard! Parking was £1.50 a hour and if you want to use the toilets it is 40p. Park was good for the kids and everything clean.
