My second home! I lived there for two years in the late 1970s for work and fell in love with the place. Once married we came here as many years as possible as our 'bolt hole'. Now my husband is no longer with us I am coming back this year with his niece which will be bittersweet. The water is so clear you can walk out into the sea and watch the fish swim in and out of your legs. This video is obviously out of season as dogs are only allowed on the whole beach at that time. In season there is a dog section up by the pier where the theatre is. St Mary's Street is indeed one of the main streets of the town. St Thomas, running parallel, is the other and runs straight down over the bridge that opens every two hours to allow larger ships to enter and leave the marina. Look at the colour of the water in the harbour! Too late for me to move down there now but will always be my dream location. ❤
My memories of Weymouth was when I was a teenager in the 70's. We stayed in a caravan at Bowleaze Cove and I remember sitting under some trees watching the ferries coming in from the channel islands. That’s all gone now by the looks of it, happy days
This brought back happy memories of a holiday in Weymouth many years ago....August 1957 to be precise! Entertainers appearing there then were Joe Baker and Jack Douglas and a young slim comedian called Bill Maynard. All of them went on to bigger things.
This is a lovely video, really enjoyable. First went to Weymouth as a small boy in '77 with my my mum and dad. I was around 5 at the time. We stayed in a caravan at Bowleaze Cove. Remember it well, and I also remember going to Hardy's cottage. I've been back to Weymouth a few times since, and always loved it. One of my favourite places
We visited Weymouth in June when we had a holiday in Dorset. It was packed with no parking anywhere and of course no dogs on the beach. Not keen on crowds and lots of amusement arcades, we just drove through and left. Think I would like it off season like this video. Beach looks lovely.
Enjoyed the video as always, thanks for another great walk! And the gimbal white trainers making their first jump appearance, very smooth, credit to the gimbal!
I was born in Weymouth in 1947! An amazing bay and pleasant harbour area but otherwise very little going for it unless you like candy floss and slot machine arcades. Visited recently and the town sadly has a feeling of terminal decline, like many U.K. seaside resorts. The era of the ‘Swindon Works Week’ that used to define the place is long gone but that is probably a good thing!
Weymouth is a nice place to stay and walk round and visit and have a bus ride round Weymouth and on to portland bill and it was a nice ride and back and to other places in on day got back home and it was nice and sunny day when you can see the cruise ship thanks Neil for going there
I have noticed with your videos that they are filmed months before you upload them, nothing wrong with that but why don't you add in the description when they were filmed as people would like to know.
❤ Dorset & Weymouth was a fave of mine. The Nothe Fort was an interesting place with great views all around. I also enjoyed the Isle of Portland with its amazing views overlooking Chesil Beach. I never did find the lighthouse, though 😕
It's a shame that the old tramway got removed and couldn't be repurposed as a heritage line or as part of a tram (proper trams). A tram route following the original tramway and then going along the promenade would probably would have done reasonably well
Yes all along with esplanade are lasers, because the council took down the lights from Greenhill to the pavilion because it cost them a fortune maintaining them and replaced them with the cheaper lasers 😊
Its kovely there used to go for holidays, thomi dont think its as nucd as it used to be. There werr more weird and wonderful litle clothes shops, can't see any now,... There was a ovely fish and chip shop just under the bridge u cud eat in....sorta two mins awwy from the pub. Bin that and ate and drinks. I eve have a photo of me outside in me bikini top and shotts! Was in my twenties. No sixties. Time flies. Well done . U should of gone iver the bridgge👍👍

I went to my first disco in Weymouth 1980
Stayed in a b&b in Weymouth in the early noughties when. Walking the southwest coastal footpath- very impressed with it.
My favourite holiday with my parents as a boy. Thanks for bringing back some memories
Only been to Weymouth once for a week about 8 years ago, lovely seeing it again and remembering places I had forgotten
Such a wonderful place. We have just returned from a holiday in Weymouth, it's our favourite place.

Gorgeous little pebbles in the sand, love all the colors, and the sound of waves is simply mesmerizing. Whoah! at 23:47 the dog made me jump! 🤣

Beautiful coloured water in the harbour!
It really is!
I spent many happy sixties to eighties holidays in Weymouth. I lived in Bournemouth from 1982 to 2000..now in Wales.
Blew us away, we have never been to Weymouth but now we will have to make sure we do, the info in your videos is amazing.
Thank you! 🔥
Went down from Brum couple wks ago, slept on the beach in my sleepin bag.....love it!!!!

Loved the walk found Weymouth, looking forward to seeing it on holiday soon.💕
Hope you enjoy your trip!

I didn't realise that anyone would be that interested - but will try from now on! Thanks for the idea!

I also enjoyed the Isle of Portland with its amazing views overlooking Chesil Beach.
I never did find the lighthouse, though 😕
❤ great video, many thanks 😂😊
Thank you
Nothing remains of the boat train, only the platform
shame you didn’t show the cannon ball embedded in the wall! great video👍
Oooh whereabouts is that!!
@@GimbalWalkTV it’s at the harbour entrance on the left hand side👍
Adoro questa cittadina e mi piace molto l'orologio rosso❤

Those tall yellow pillars are lasers
Lasers?
Yes all along with esplanade are lasers, because the council took down the lights from Greenhill to the pavilion because it cost them a fortune maintaining them and replaced them with the cheaper lasers 😊
I notice that the carousel was not outside the Rex Hotel, has it been removed or moved does anybody know ?
Thats a mix of sand and shingle
8:20 ominous crow.....
Very!
Do the trains still run through the street to get the boat over to Jersey.
Was this video taken in winter?
March I think!
weymouth beach is blinding
Agreed!
