This awesome aquarium is run by the fantastic Sea Life group, who I really respect for their great conservation work. The Weymouth Sea Life Centre is laid out in various themed ‘worlds’ across a big complex. There’s also a huge play area and a mini theme park. Highlights include rescued sea turtles (whose shells were damaged by boats), seals, and penguins – as well as my personal favourite, the Bay o’ Rays. Lodmore Country Park and Leisureranch The street is known for its medical establishments, most notably The Harley Street Clinic built in 1935. Over time, larger institutional and residential buildings replaced earlier Georgian terraces at its intersections with Marylebone High Street, Portland Place and Great Portland Street. In contrast, central sections of the street still " retain much of their former domestic scale and character." [9] The street was lined with trees in 2010 as part of a neighbourhood community and stakeholder-based greening initiative.

Starting with Weymouth Bay, a beautiful stretch of golden sand which runs from the Pavilion, all the way to the old Pier Bandstand. The esplanade runs along most of the beach, lined with picturesque Georgian buildings. The beach itself boasts calm waters thanks to the shelter of the curving bay, as well as plenty of attractions. From donkey rides and swing boats, to ice cream stands and candy floss, there’s plenty to keep you occupied! The pebble beach runs for 18 miles with a series of beautiful lagoons on one side and the sea on the other. You can follow it all the way to the lovely Abbotsbury Subtropical Gardens to extend the walk.Weymouth’s long arc of fine golden sand is second to none.Hours of fun can be enjoyed on the beach building sandcastles and splashing around in the clear blue sea.

But, I used to work as a reviewer for a national paper, so I do have first-hand experience of a few. I also know lots of people who’ve worked in various accommodation options around Weymouth and Dorset. So, I have a lot of insider knowledge about the best places to stay! This seaside resort in Dorset has some fine coastal walks to try. There's also some pretty nature reserves with lots of wildlife to look out for. Again, I’ll pop together a separate post with some more detail, but here are a few of the best places to stay in Weymouth:

Golden sands, fish n’ chips, and a picturesque harbour…Weymouth in Dorset is the perfect place for a quintessentially British beach holiday. Osmington White Horse - Climb to the Osmington White Horse and enjoy wonderful views along the Jurassic Coast on this circular walk in Dorset If you’re into sustainable shopping, there are lots of second-hand shops to grab a bargain and do your bit to save the planet. There are also refill and wholefood shops for all the essentials and more. New Bond Street Shopping CentreWeymouth Street lies in the Marylebone district of the City of Westminster and connects Marylebone High Street with Great Portland Street. The area was developed in the late 18th century by Henrietta Cavendish Holles and her husband Edward Harley, 2nd Earl of Oxford. [1] This part of Marylebone originally belonged to the Manor of Tyburn which existed at the time of the Domesday Book (1086). The Rio Grande Railway model railway circles the events area at Lodmoor, giving rides throughout the summer season. Alongside the park, you’ll also find the Leisureranch funfair. This features several fun-filled attractions, including a giant bumpy slide and go-karts. Pirate Adventure Golf Overlooking Weymouth Harbour, the Nothe Fort was built in 1872 and played an important role in WWII. It’s now been renovated and converted into a museum staffed by an absolutely lovely team of over 70 volunteers, with loads of WWII memorabilia including some big guns and cannons along the ramparts. It’s also been voted one of the spookiest locations in the UK! The fort is supposedly haunted by the ghost of a gunman who died in the war, known locally as the Whistling Gunner. Monkey World And with shops specialising in fresh fish, pasties and pies, cheese, wine and more, you won’t go far without being tempted into buying some fantastic Dorset food and drink. Eventful Weymouth! Another great area for walking, not only because of the fantastic views towards Weymouth, but also for its significant role in Dorset history. The huge image of a horse and rider etched into the limestone on the side of Osmington Hill was built in 1808 to commemorate King George III’s visit.
