Clarence Pier
About
Clarence Pier, nestled in the seaside town of Southsea, Portsmouth, is a historic amusement landmark that has delighted families and thrill‑seekers alike for over a century. Open from March through late September, the pier blends classic charm with modern entertainment: from its vibrant arcade halls and indoor Putt Hutt mini‑golf course to the iconic Wimpy restaurant serving traditional British fare. While the fairground rides are currently closed until 2026, the arced funfair, Putt Hutt, and Wimpy are open daily, offering a family‑friendly outing with plenty of photo‑opportunities. Visitors can enjoy a relaxed stroll along the seafront, enjoy the arcade's nostalgic games, or capture quirky memories at the Upside Down House. With easy access via car, bus, or the nearby Portsmouth Harbour train station, Clarence Pier remains a quintessential family destination on the South Coast.
