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.

There are several public car parks located within a short walking distance of Weymouth Harbour, including:

  • Harbourside Car Park (DT4 8DZ) – Just steps from the harbour.
  • Cosens Quay Car Park (DT4 8DL) – A short stroll across the bridge.

The walk from the station to the harbour takes you through the town centre and along attractive streets lined with local shops and restaurants. Taxis are available outside the station if preferred.
