Southampton's Riverside Park is a sprawling recreation area that hugs the eastern bank of the River Itchen. It's 32 acres (12.9 ha) includes football pitches, play areas and cricket pitches; it's perfect for families.

So close to numerous suburbs, the park is popular with locals to get out and enjoy nature. The Itchen is a particularly vibrant river and is home to plenty of wildlife. Birdlife is abundant in the area so keep an eye out and you might spot kingfishers, herons and plenty more.
