52 Walks in 2010 - Walk 28 - Weymouth (2) (18th August 2010)

Todays walk took us along the south side of the harbour at Weymouth unlike walk 18 which took us along the north side.

On both sides of the water there are pubs, restaurants and shops and the area was especially busy today as it was Carnival Day.







Many of the harbour side shops were painted in bright colours.



Condor Ferries operate from Weymouth taking passengers to Guernsey, Jersey and St. Malo, Brittany. Today one of the the fast car ferries was in dock waiting to go out.



Lots of the hotels had bunting decorating them.



Just off the harbour is 'Brewers Quay'. The Victorian brewery building has been redeveloped to house a Shopping Village with over 20 specialist shops, the Weymouth Museum, Timewalk Heritage Tour and Science Discovery Centre.
