Weymouth bay offers a vast area for racing with steady South Westerly breezes being the norm, whilst Portland harbour provides 1000 hectares of sheltered sailing waters for when winds pick up.
Part of the "Jurassic Coast" - a world heritage site, the venue provides unrivalled sailing against one of the most spectacular backdrops in the world. There is plenty to do for the non sailors too, Weymouth is a traditional seaside town with a picturesque harbour and a sandy beach, whilst Portland is a rugged island, steeped in history.
