Bowleaze Cove — Attraction in Weymouth

Bowleaze cove is well worth the visit. With music, drinks, food, and ice cream, what's not to love.

A relaxing day out to just watch the surf, go for a swim or relax reading your book whilst the children build sandcastles. Or take them to the fun amusement park to spend their holiday pennies. Some great spots for kite flying too whether an adult or child.

For those water sports lovers out there, you can hire equipment for a fun day out. 😀

This beach is dog friendly too, which is an added bonus if you are out with your dogs.

Take your beach shoes or a beach mat to sit on, as the stones can be uncomfortable on sensitive soles.

Overall, well worth the visit. There is a fantastic holiday park there too for added fun....

A Very sweet little corner down on the coast. This is looking down onto Bowleaze Cove, The beach and the beach leading on to Weymouth. The Bowleaze cove complex is made up of a few things that keep the day busy and well fueled. The place gets very busy on warm days. They be a small theme park for the younger kids. A lovely cafe down on the beach. The beach can handle the crowds and the sea depth is pretty child friendly also. Dogs are also welcome so as an all round family fun beach you are okay. It's also a good starting point for a beach walk towards Lodmoor and the Sealife centre , Weymouth or the other way towards Durdle Door (which is about 8 miles along the coast path) Car parking...

What a dump. Ugly, cheesy caffs/bars and garish funfair-type thing. Grubby-looking mostly pebble beach with very little sand in evidence. Pointless, tiny, rusting pier contraption. All overlooked by the hideous, disintegrating Riviera Hotel which is begging for a visit from the wrecking ball.

Best thing to do in Bowleaze Cove is to leave. The coast walk eastwards towards Osmington Mills is lovely (apart from the bit marred by the PGL boot camp).

Just found that Constable did a painting of Bowleaze Cove in the 19th Century. Must be spinning...
