Weymouth Harbour - Dorset, UK

Fishing boats and yachts line the quays of Weymouth Harbour in Dorset, on England's south coast, and this camera looks along the water toward the Town Bridge and the colorful old houses of the waterfront.

The Town Bridge, built in 1930, is a lifting bridge that opens to let boats in and out of the inner harbor. Across it lies Hope Square, and the town sits roughly halfway along the Jurassic Coast, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

King George III made Weymouth his summer holiday home 14 times between 1789 and 1805, helping turn it into a popular seaside resort. In 2012 the Olympic sailing races were held just along the coast at Portland.

Did You Know? In 1348 the Black Death is thought to have reached England first through Melcombe Regis, the part of Weymouth on the north side of the harbor.
