Weymouth is situated ion the south coast in the county of Dorset.
Entertainment/Facilities/Attractions/Things to do:
Just a few hundred metres from Weymouth's town centre, you'll find the Swannery and RSPB Nature Reserve and a host of indoor and outdoor attractions open all year. With the variety of places to visit and over 200 year-round events, there really is something to suit everyone.
Another, more modern defensive structure is Nothe Fort, built on a headland jutting into Portland Harbour in 1860. It was in service until 1956, and has since been transformed into a living museum, tracing the history of the fort, and in particular the role of Weymouth in the Second World War.
