Destination Essentials

Whether you prefer hot, sunny days or cooler temperatures, Weymouth caters to you. The best time to visit, especially for beachgoers, is summer; with the warmest month being August and plenty of sunshine. However, with its mild British climate and abundance of indoor attractions, there's something to enjoy in Weymouth all year round.

For a lesser crowd and cooler temperature, consider visiting in the shoulder seasons of spring (April to June) and autumn (September to October). These seasons also allow you to experience the town's celebrated horticulture, thanks to the favourable climate.
