Weymouth Harbour is centrally located on the beautiful Dorset coast and is easy to reach, whether you’re travelling by car, train, or bus. Nestled just a short walk from the vibrant Weymouth town centre, the harbour is surrounded by charming shops, cosy cafés, and family-friendly attractions – perfect for exploring before or after your time on the water.
The harbourside itself is largely flat, offering easy access for prams and wheelchairs, and makes for a lovely, leisurely stroll with views of sailing boats, fishing vessels, and the sea beyond.
By car:
Weymouth is easily accessible by road. From the A35 (which connects to Dorchester and Poole), take the A354 directly into Weymouth. The route is clearly signposted and offers a scenic drive, especially as you approach the coast.

- Harbourside Car Park (DT4 8DZ) – Just steps from the harbour.
