Weymouth Bay walk #weymouth #dorset #beach #sea #nature #coast #geography #holiday #summer #swim
A gentle stroll from Bowlease Cove all the way along Weymouth beaches to the Pavilion.
Each stretch of beach in the long sweeping cove has a different name and a unique feel.
Starting at Bowlease Cove near the Waterside holiday park, this beach has cafes, bars, cocktails, a fun park, outside big screen TV etc. all close by so there are usually quite a few people around.
Jet skis in this area as there is a launch ramp, good fun but the noise can become annoying.
The beach has pebbles but sand in the sea and at the waters edge.
if you want a bit more solitude, just walk a little way towards Weymouth, the beach dwellers thin out and you can have a large area to yourself even in high season.
This stretch of beach is called Overcombe.
With cliffs above give it a peaceful vibe.
As you move up towards Oasis Café the people return.
Lots of water sports from here, there are hire shops for equipment.
Remember to buy a ticket in the carpark even if just dropping off as they have a parking eye camera.
Still pebbles with sand in the sea.
The water is much deeper here than the Weymouth beach end so it is better for swimming.
The people thin out again as you walk along Preston Beach.
It is more secluded here but the traffic noise from Preston Beach road is constant.
There is a steep bank down to the waters edge and exposed sea defense rocks on some stretches so best to get to the waters edge level nearer the Oasis cafe and walk along.
The water still has a good depth here.
As you get towards the Sea Life park the beach becomes Greenhill beach.
Busier than Preston beach, a prom with houses and hotels between the beach and road so less traffic noise.
Cafes, toilets and beach huts on this stretch.
Still a good depth to the water for swimming.
There are rafts to swim out to and dive off in the summer.
Keep walking and you get to the old Pier Bandstand. Now a restaurant above, amusement arcade, cafe and toilets below.
Now we are on Weymouth Beach.
Still pebbles at this end although they are getting smaller and there are patches of sand.
Road noise returns as the road runs along the seafront all the way to the pavilion.
As you walk together Jubilee Clock the beach is getting busier and the water shallower, with more sand.
On a bit further and we're on to Weymouth Sands, acres of soft golden sand ideal for sandcastles .
It's very busy in summer, lots of beach cafés, rides, donkeys, bars and restaurants just over the road, and an M&S for picnic supplies.
Also beach volleyball courts and a stage for beach concerts.
No dogs allowed on this stretch.
Right at the end near the pavilion the dogs are allowed again, they are allowed from Bowlease to Greenhill as well, but this is where they are in greater numbers.
Just over the road is Weymouth Harbour.

Filmed in August 2023. The firework displays are on at dusk every Monday evening during the school holidays, usually the last Monday in July and 4 in August. The display usually goes ahead if it's raining but may be cancelled in high winds. There is also a display and a bonfire on 5th November for Guy Falks night. The best views are all along the beach, the promenade can be rather crowded. Ther...

If they don't reinstate the page I will start a new one with the new name, handmade fantasy forest mushrooms and pumpkins. These mini pumpkin patches will be available from Artisan Island, St Mary's Street, Weymouth from Sunday 4th August. I also have some larger pumpkins on order and plan to make a mushroom and pumpkin combo log. Weather permitting I will have an outside table at Artisan Island with all my stock on Sunday, Monday and Tuesday, at other times a smaller selection is available from shelf 18 and a lower shelf near the back of the shop. The warm white lights are a new addition as well. I've just made these 2 so far, but I hope to have a few more available soon. They take about 2 hours each to make.
