Thrill-seekers will find themselves shrieking with delight on the exhilarating rides, while classic arcade games offer a nostalgic dose of entertainment. Don't forget to grab some candy floss and savor the sweet taste of a quintessential seaside experience.
For a taste of history, head to the Weston Museum. This treasure trove houses fascinating exhibits that delve into the town's rich past, from its humble fishing village roots to its transformation into a Victorian holiday hotspot. Explore displays showcasing local maritime history, Victorian bathing costumes, and the town's connection to the development of hot air balloons.
Weston-super-Mare isn't just about looking back; it embraces the present too. If you're looking for a dose of adrenaline, head to the Helicopter Museum, the world's largest dedicated to these fascinating flying machines. Witness an impressive collection of over 80 helicopters, including military choppers and historic civilian models. Interactive exhibits and flight simulators allow you to experience the thrill of these powerful machines firsthand.
For a more relaxed pace, Weston-super-Mare's glorious golden beach beckons. Stretch out on the soft sand, build sandcastles with the family, or take a refreshing dip in the sea. If you're feeling active, try your hand at water sports like paddleboarding or kayaking. Don't miss the chance to explore the nearby Weston Marine Lake, a haven for wildlife and a scenic spot for a leisurely stroll.
Beyond the beach, Weston-super-Mare offers a variety of family-friendly activities. Take a ride on the Weston Burble miniature railway, a charming attraction that circles a pretty lake.

I came here back in 85 and again in 86 for a,weeks holiday with my mum,sisters and older brother self catering as I recall. My mum loved it here. Thank you for giving me the chance to see if again 40 years on, great memories.
Used to love going to Weston twice a year when my grandparents were alive, they went to the dolls house fayre at the Winter Gardens and then we all went for dinner at the Old Thatched Cottage, always lovely food and a good day out
As a child in the late fifties early sixties I was brought here for days out and the occasional long weekend, we always called it Weston Super Mud as for the life of me I can never remember seeing the sea just the sandy mud flats, still have fond memories of the place though.
Went there as a youngster… with my family… two weeks holiday …. ❤
Thank you so much for this video. It brought back such wonderful memories. I spent a week in Weston in August 1973. As a teenager I went with my parents and my first girlfriend.I remember the lovely old pier, Birnbeck(?) And sneaking into the Winter Gardens for an underage half pint and listening to live music.Thank you again, and where did all those years go ?
thanks for visiting
I moved to wsm 10 years ago. i live on the seafront further south opposite the tropicana. I love wsm now. as a teen in the 90s living in a village nearby, I hated it. left for Scotland at 18, never intending to live here. I love the flat walkable promenade. The tide goes out between a mile and a mile and a half. Two or three times a year it comes in higher than the first sea wall. There is a second sea wall with gates that get closed to keep the sea from flooding. well done finding a low wind day.
When I lived in Italy, I used to fly from Bristol Airport and I often used to spend a day in Weston before going off to 🇮🇹. It's rough at the edges but for a no thrills, fun time by the sea ⛵, Weston is alright 👍.
I fine western super mare sea side is a lovely place regardless what they say
Agreed
The wife and I love this place, I'm starting to lose count of the times we've visited, going there again in September and
booked for may nxt year already.
Fantastic
Have a great time!
I live in Birmingham so Weston is great for a day at the seaside!
Absolutely
Weston is another beautiful town there in Somerset and so is the
magnificent scenic views of the sea, also nice places to eat and drink
of course and a lot of interesting things to see this is another great
and beautiful area of the UK until next time thank you.🇬🇧🎇🎆🇬🇧
I’ve been to Weston several times as a youngster. The restaurant where you ended the video used to be the Tropicana pool. I don’t know what the pier is like now. Used to be a fun fair in there. We locals call it Weston super mud as the tide is always out. I haven’t been since the 70s. Great video and thank you.
the tropicana pool is further south along the seafront.
Revos restaurant was built in the late 90s as a seaquarium.
the tropicana building has a cafe and an event space for hire
I like yourself love Weston I've been no end of times and on numerous day trips i know it's not everyone's cup of tea but that's their problem I'm 65 now i retire in January 2025 and hopefully I'll have a few years left to make many more visits by the way great filming
Great video thank you. I live in south wales and quite often visit. I share your personal views on weston
My parents used to take me on holiday every year in the 1970s. I now bring my wife for 2 weeks every year. Love weston so much to do in weston and surrounding area. I'm from Scotland.
Great video 👍 not been to Weston since the summer of 1976 golden rail from Sheffield. Spent many happy hour in the old Tropicana water park sadly long since gone.
A vary good video of WESTON SUPER MARE - Full Seafront Tour😀😀👍👍
Many thanks!
I've had daytrips to Weston since I was a nipper the best part of 50 years ago. Great place to revisit though I do miss the 'old' pier.
Weston is lovely I used to live there was there 6 years would like to visit it again sometime🙂
I remember driving on the beach. Used to visit regularly to visit supplier at Weston Airfield
Going in September, been lots of times before. Enjoy it.
Being only an hour & 20 mins away am a regular visitor to Weston. Always like to stay for a night or two - The Grand Atlantic Hotel, Royal Grosvenor but mainly at The Sandringham which is more central. Have walked down to the old Birnbeck pier but never far the other way towards what was the Sea life centre. Always good walk along the pier & through the town area. Will be back there soon.
Is the Sea Life centre part past Birnbeck Pier or the other way?
@@GimbalWalkTV it was where the Revo is now
Ive got a soft spot for Weston. Visited a couple of times and always enjoyed it.
You and me both!
I've been to Weston super mare about 10 to 15 times, the first time was a week school trip when I was 13 yrs, we stayed at a caravan park in Brean and it rained most of the week!. We ended up at some restaurant on seafront, can't remember what it was called, but probably doesn't exist anymore!, even though it was raining most of the time, still had a good time. I was persuaded to go on 4 day coach holiday to Weston super mare, and went out on daytrips, but stayed at this hotel in Weston called the Midland Hotel and it was the worst I had ever stayed at, when I was watching your video, you walked past the hotel, I can't believe it's still open, it's okay if you don't mind slumming it!.I've been a chambermaid in lots of hotels and was always told if you keep the rooms clean and presentable, the customer will come back, they notice when things are missed and have every right to complain!, it's worse than the Norbreck hotel in Blackpool and that's a dive!
Just been here today as I live near Bristol
Nice beach I visit in 2016
Lovely walk . Fun fact Borry Lewis was born here . He has a you tube channel .he cook things
I plan to visit Devon and Dorset from Canada next year so thanks for this suite of walks.
Give Weston-Super-Mud a miss,it's a salt marsh at the river's mouth,&its town is very rough.They have to clear drug-users' needles from the mud flats every day.
@@helenbenjafield7351I was planning to stick to the south.
Stephen merchant filmed ‘Outlaws’ here and if it’s good enough for him it’s good enough for me
Why is the flag on the Grand Pier at half mast @32:31 ? Great video, wonderful to visit from sitting at home, almost like taking a short break to be there by the sea.
Hope you get to visit Cheddar and Wookey Hole while you're down that way 👍
Stay tuned to tomorrow's 😉
Yay!!! I just moved back to Scarborough for living USA past 20 years , spent a lot of time in the area visiting family in Street when I was young . This is a nice warm up to whet the appetite prior to going down in August! 👍
Hello, where do you think is worth staying when your in Weston?
Great vlogs
The Premier Inn is nice
I also stay at the Old Colonial pub on the seafront ❤️
@GimbalWalkTV thank you. Just about to watch your Minehead vlog ✨️
Can you film paphos cyprus please
😎I here it's a good place for UFOs
Peyote much?
Looks 100 times better now than in 1999 when I lived there .. looks great now
Don’t get how people can holiday there, there’s barely enough to do on a day trip
Depends what you look for really
If it’s peace and quiet and affordable you’re after then Weston is definitely an option
@@GimbalWalkTV The parking’s a rip off and they charge you to go on the pier to …… spend money and the tide is always about a mile out.
