10 Free Things to do in Weymouth That You Shouldn't Miss

November 23, 2021 Christa Meece

Hit the beautiful beaches of Weymouth to soak up the surprisingly powerful U.K. sun—there are plenty of waterfront options to pick from. The quaint harbor of Weymouth bobs merrily with fishing boats, and, downtown, Hope Square and Brewers Quay bustle with shoppers and merrymakers.

Abbotsbury Playground

Abbotsbury Playground is maintained and insured by volunteers. A group of local people came together to form a group in 2006 working tirelessly hard to turn a field into the beautiful playground it is today. The playground was made possible through the kind donations of the community, Chesil Bank Parish Council, Dorset Community Action (Kris Hallett) Awards for all, Co operative Community Fund, The Big Lottery Community Spaces Grant and the hard work of its committee members who successfully applied for these grants.We have volunteers who cut the grass, empty the bins and ensure the playground is perfect! We have visitors who also visit, play and keep the playground tidy and we would like to thank you all for this! Please feel free to leave us a review, we'd love to hear your thoughts on your trip!

A beautiful art gallery located on the harbourside in Weymouth offering original paintings, limited edition prints and locally made glass and ceramics.

Reviewed By Smartizan - Luton, United Kingdom

Haven’t visited the gallery itself however purchased a superb painting on line. The staff at the gallery were extremely helpful and shipped the artwork to us. I have to say the packaging was quite amazing and delivery time very good. Geraldine kept me informed as to the status of despatch. Soon as we are able to go out and about again we will be visiting in person

The Doghouse Micro Pub

Weymouths's Micro Pub, how pubs used to be. Real ales directly from the cask, traditional ciders, country wines, mead, gins and European bottled craft beers. No music, no jukebox, no fruit machines. Just good old fashioned conversation.

Reviewed By gljidb - Leeds, United Kingdom

Visited the micropub after struggling to find a decent variety of real ale in Weymouth. A warm welcome was ensured by Ruddles, who we kept entertained playing fetch for the duration of our visit. Three real ales were available straight from the cask and a number of different ciders.

Reviewed By 197PeterK - Tamworth, United Kingdom

All this holiday in Weymouth I have walked round this wetland. I think it’s fantastic our dog likes her walks there too. The bird spotting and wild life there are just great. It is well maintained and clean. There are benches to sit on. Sheltered spots to watch the birds from. Got to worth a visit if you are in the area.

First visit to Chesil Beach from the Portland end. Still fabulous and interesting. Love all the pebbles and the sloping beach that stretches for miles. Great for photographs and to get the sea air. Car park and visitors centre with cafe located nearby. Great escape.

Portland Plateau

A varied 4.7 mile walk classed as Moderate along the South West Coast Path as it heads along the east coast of Portland, passing great scenery, historical forts and old quarry workings. Many of the paths around Portland Bill are accessible for powered wheelchair users and rugged pushchairs. The first ½ mile of this route follows a level wide path, but after this becomes more varied with some steep and uneven sections before reaching Church Ope Cove. From the cove to Portland Heights the path is relatively level apart from one steep climb.

Reviewed By L7768EQdavidd - Devon, United Kingdom

Wednesday 16th September and we visited the Isle of Portland where this Plateau is a feature. We parked up in the Portland Bill Car Park and went exploring. The most famous landmark here is the Lighthouse which stands on Portland Bill. Another impressive landmark is the Trinity House Obelisk. There is so much more to see here including Pulpit Rock and the dramatic and rugged coastline. We got take away coffees from the Lobster Pot Cafe and went for a brief stroll across Portland Commons. Thankfully it was a glorious sunny day and it showed off the Plateau at it's very best.
