A little more information on Blackpool

Blackpool is a beach resort on England's northwestern coast that is well-known. The town located 17 miles north of Preston, on the Irish Sea, between the Ribble and Wyre estuaries. Since the mid-eighteenth century, when it became fashionable in England to travel to the shore in the summer to improve one's well-being, Blackpool has been a popular holiday destination. Donkey rides, fish-and-chip shops, and theatres are still popular attractions on Blackpool's seven-mile sandy beach and promenade. Other notable attractions include the Blackpool Tower, Blackpool illuminations, the Pleasure Beach, Sandcastle Water Park, the Winter Gardens, and Blackpool Zoo, as well as a ride on the UK's sole surviving first-generation tramway. Nearby, the seaside towns of Lytham and St Annes-on-Sea nestle along a picturesque stretch of coastline lined with pretty parks, while walkers and twitchers will enjoy the rolling sandy dunes of St Annes-on-Sea and the Ribble Estuary, which provides a safe haven for more than 250,000 migrating birds who return each winter. With seven golf courses to choose from, including the Royal Lytham & St Annes Old Links Golf Club, one of the host courses for the Open Championship, the area is worldwide recognised for golf. Boating, cycling, shopping, and swimming are all available nearby, as are award-winning restaurants, traditional taverns, and wine bars for celebrations. Whatever you're looking for in a coastal vacation, Blackpool is an excellent choice.
