Weymouth is a popular seaside resort with beautiful sandy beaches, excellent water sports facilities, and a picturesque harbor that offers regular day trips to the Channel Islands. This exceptional holiday destination offers many visitor attractions for all ages and tastes. Portland Harbour and the ruggedly beautiful "Isle" of Portland, linked to Weymouth by the stunning Chesil Beach, are both a short drive away. Thomas Hardy's inspiration for "Casterbridge", the town of Dorchester, is just seven miles away, and a drive along the scenic coast road takes you to Abbotsbury Swannery and Subtropical Gardens. The views of the stunning Dorset Heritage Coastline from West Bay are also well worth taking the time to see.
