Top Five Attractions Of Weymouth By Helen Stevens Weymouth is one of the finest seaside destinations in Dorset and has been very popular amongst tourists since the 18th Century. With so many attractions on offer I have decided to focus on five of the best places and these are as follows: Weymouth Whitewater This attraction is not for the faint-hearted and is an heart stopping experience that is most popular with younger age groups. If you like a challenge filled with thrills and spills then you will revel in the strong tides and white-knuckle feel that Weymouth Whitewater has to offer, just be prepared to get soaked. Brewers Quay: If you like History then Brewers Quay is the place to stop at. There is the Timewalk Museum which is a terrific journey back through six hundred years of Weymouth’s past displaying events such as the Black Death that hit the town in the 14th Century as well as the townsfolk preparing for the onset of the Spanish Armada. There is also the old brewey building which dates back to the Victorian era and houses over twenty shops selling a array of specialist merchandise. Sharky's Playzone Sharky's Playzone is a terrific place to take the kids. It caters for kids of all ages as well as the older ones and even adults might like trying the Laserzone which is open in the evening for children 7 years and older. There
is also a bar if you {{{fancy|want|feel like}} a drink as well as a varied range of food and drinks for the children. Sea Life Park Especially aimed at the whole family, the Sea Life Park with its indoor and outdoor attractions will keep people of all generations amused. With a wide range of sea creatures here such as sharks, octopus, seahorses etc the Sea Life Park is a marvelous experience if you wish to learn more about sea life. Bennett's Water Garden: Finally there is Bennett's water garden which is believed to have the best range of water lilies in Britain. Named after its planter, Norman Bennett, the garden has continued to thrive spanning across a massive eight acres and is a perfect setting for a relaxing walk. With so much to see and do it is no wonder that so many tourists descend on Weymouth, and I would recommend visiting this extraordinary town if you ever get the chance.
