5 Best Activities In Morecambe
The tide goes a long way out here, and a seaside town where the sea is sometimes absent has learned to entertain families indoors. Four of the five entries have a roof. Only Happy Mount Park is fully at the mercy of the weather.
That indoor four is a decent four. Soul Bowl and Jump Rush Trampoline Park take the energetic hours, Laser Rush suits children who like the lights down, and PottyRoo's Paint Your Own Pottery is the one that finally buys a parent a sit down.

A seaside town that has quietly become an indoor one. Take the bay when it is on offer and use the other four entries when it is not, which on this coast is a fair proportion of the year.
Visiting Morecambe with kids: FAQs
The sea is a long way out. Is it still a beach day?
It can be, with adjustments. When the tide is out the bay becomes an enormous flat expanse rather than a swimming beach, which children either love or find pointless. Check the tide before promising a paddle, and keep Happy Mount Park in reserve as the outdoor option that does not depend on water.
What is the best bad-weather plan?
Morecambe is unusually well equipped for that. Soul Bowl, Jump Rush Trampoline Park, Laser Rush and PottyRoo's Paint Your Own Pottery are all indoor, covering four of the five entries and every energy level from flat out to sitting down. Two in a day is a comfortable rhythm.
Which suits a child who dislikes noise and crowds?
PottyRoo's Paint Your Own Pottery. It is the one place here where the activity is slow, the volume stays low, and a child can be absorbed in something for an hour without anybody chasing them round. It also produces something to carry home, which younger children value more than adults expect.
Anything for a group of older children?
Laser Rush and Jump Rush Trampoline Park both suit that age and both work with a group rather than only a family. Sessions at places like these tend to be timed and can fill up at weekends, so booking ahead is sensible if you are arriving with more than a couple of children in tow.
