The Queens Jubilee Nature Trail was restored in 1992 (to celebrate the Queens 40th anniversary). This wildlife haven has well laid out paths and picnicking areas close to Southport town centre. The oldest dunes are covered in willow scrub, whilst the low-lying wet areas are rich in orchids.

​

Two entrances on the Esplanade lead to circular pathways linked to Victoria Park and Rotten Row. The viewing platform provides excellent views of the beach, the Ribble Estuary, the high tide roosts of shore birds and the Welsh Hills.
