1. Weymouth Bay Holiday Park

If you're staying at our Weymouth Bay Holiday Park, it's time to get in your swimming costume. There's plenty of poolside fun, indoors and out! If you fancy a dip, take advantage of our outdoor swimming pool on a sunny day, or our massive indoor pool if it's looking a little cloudy. 

And where else have you seen a holiday park with a Lazy River that runs straight through it? Paddle, splash, and glide down our purpose-built river that starts indoors and moves outside with fun fountains to enjoy at either end. If you don't fancy getting your feet wet, relax at the poolside on one of our loungers or at the bar. Left your goggles at home? Never fear, we've got you covered with our shop that'll kit you out with swimming essentials.

There are two sections of the pool for leisurely play or for getting your lengths in. 

Outdoors, you have the option to chill out next to the pool on our array of sun loungers on the decked area and enjoy the water with easy access to the pool via the steps. From the poolside, you can take in the green surroundings of Weymouth. We've even included smart little beach hut-style changing areas to get ready for your swim and store your towels.
