A few minutes walk from Southsea Studios is Canoe Lake. Fun for all guests. Pedal boats available for hire in the Summer months. Theres a nice cafe on the outskirts of the lake. Plenty of green areas for picnics and a childrens play area.

Canoe Lake dates back to 1886, located east of South Parade Pier and surrounded by open grassland, perfect for picnics. Pedals boats are for hire, which are great fun for everyone. Adjacent to the lake is a café, large children's outdoor play area, including a zip wire, sand pit and splash park. The remaining walls of Lumps Fort offer a peaceful and restful setting for Southsea Rose Gardens. Other facilities in this area include grass and hard tennis courts, bowls greens, putting, St Helen's field cricket field and the Model Village. The Natural History Museum is also nearby with butterfly house and observational beehive. Entry is free.

A popular park dating from 1886 with some of the mature evergreen oaks planted in 1910, Canoe Lake has an impressive range of floral bedding on display at the water's edge. The main attraction to the area is the man made boating lake which has pedal boats available for hire. There is a large and very popular children's play area with equipment for all ages and includes a zip wire, sand pit and water area. Adjacent to the lake are the remaining walls of Lumps Fort which is now a peaceful and restful setting for Southsea Rose Gardens. It is also home to the Model Village where everything is on a miniature scale. Canoe Lake is known as a swan's nursery as it is one of the mute swans' chosen sites in the Solent. At times up to 60 juveniles can congregate here for comfort and security during the winter. Bread can be harmful for the swans as it is difficult to digest. Wheat grain is a much healthier alternative and is usually available at the Canoe Lake cafe that is located nearby. The park is accessed from St. Helen's Parade, where you can enjoy free entry to Portsmouth's Natural History Museum at Cumberland House (see 'External Links'). The museum tells the story of the wild things of the riverbank, marshes, woods and urban areas of Portsmouth. It also has an aquarium and butterfly house (only in the summer). There are many sports facilities available, ranging from a putting green, grass and tarmac tennis courts, and a basketball court. Further east is St. Helen's Cricket Field and Southsea Mini-Links - a challenging 9-hole golf course.
