Southport Hookups: Southport Women Want to Meet

No-strings fun for adults in Southport, from Birkdale up to Churchtown.

Southport was built for pleasure

The town began in 1792 with a bathing house, put up by an innkeeper from Churchtown at what is now the south end of Lord Street, on a stretch of dunes then known as South Hawes. Visitors came first by the Leeds and Liverpool Canal, the railway arrived by 1848, and the Victorians did the rest: Lord Street laid out wide and lined with trees, streets of villas, and a pier that is still the second longest seaside pleasure pier in the British Isles.

About 94,000 people live here now, the third biggest population in the Liverpool City Region, and Southport still leans on its visitors, from weekend and bank-holiday day-trippers to conferences, and it sits at the centre of England's Golf Coast. If dating in Southport, for you, means skipping the dinners and getting straight to the good part, you're in the right place.

Under-25s lead the way around Southport

For sex in Southport, the crowd is young. Within 25 miles of the town, more than four in ten of our members are 18 to 24, with the 25 to 34s adding three in ten more, so over seven in ten are under 35. The 45 to 54s come to about one in seven and the 35 to 44s to one in ten, with hardly anyone past 55. Women make up fewer than one in five, which is reason enough to put some effort into your photos.

They come from Southport itself, and from Liverpool, Preston, Leyland, Blackpool, Wigan, Bolton and Glazebury, so they're by no means all beside the sea.

A Victorian boulevard for your first hello

Lord Street is the natural place to start. It's broad, tree-lined and full of shops in buildings worth a second look, and it's as public a place to say hello as you could ask for. The pier gives you a walk with a view and an easy topic of conversation, and New Pleasureland, the fairground that opened in 2007 on the site of the old Pleasureland, is there when you'd both rather laugh than talk.

For something quieter, the sand dunes run for several miles from Woodvale down to Birkdale, and if your match plays golf, the courses run from the nine-hole Old Links in High Park to Royal Birkdale, which has hosted the men's Open ten times since 1954. Ocean Plaza, the shopping development on the site of an old funfair, is another easy landmark. Wherever you pick, keep it public, tell a friend, and read our safety page before you go.

Liverpool, Preston and the towns in between

Liverpool is about 17 miles south and Preston about 15, and several towns sit closer still. Lytham St Annes is under seven miles away, Ormskirk under eight and Maghull about nine. Skelmersdale and Blackpool are both around 12 miles off, Bootle a little further, and Penwortham about 14. Preston and Blackpool are both among the places our members near Southport come from, so meeting halfway works in either direction.

Southport hookups, off the record

Is this a dating site for Southport, or just hookups?

Hookups first. Members can say whether they're after something casual, long-term or a friendship, and daily matches take that into account, but HookUps is made for no-strings fun. Say what you want on your profile and you'll save everyone time.

Are there women looking for sex in Southport?

Yes, though fewer than across the site as a whole: women are just under a fifth of our members within 25 miles. Liverpool, Preston and Blackpool are all inside that circle, so a wider search distance gives you more to choose from.

Does Southport get busy enough to meet new people?

It does at weekends and on bank holidays, when the day-trippers arrive, and the town's annual events and conferences bring in more. Lord Street and the pier are the easy places to meet when it's busy.
