Weymouth

Weymouth is a seaside town in Dorset on the English Channel coast. The town is 11 kilometres (7 mi) south of Dorchester and 8 kilometres (5 mi) north of the Isle of Portland.

Weymouth holds over two hundred events throughout the year, including firework festivals, dragon boat racing, beach volleyball, handball, motocross, and the annual carnival in mid-August. Weymouth’s wide and shallow sandy beach is used for swimming and sunbathing, and for beach sport events throughout the year. Nothe Fort is one of the maritime-related museums in the town.

The Pavilion Theatre is between the harbour and the esplanade, providing a venue for local community groups and schools, and hosting seasonal ‘end-of-the-pier’ entertainment and year-round shows and events. The main shopping centre is in Melcombe Regis, consisting of two pedestrianised streets, shops along the esplanade, and a new precinct from St. Thomas’s Street. There are shops and restaurants in Hope Square and Brewers Quay. The town centre has around 292 shops.
