ウェイマスアンドポートランドのおすすめウォーキング＆ハイキングルート

鮮やかな四角い棒のようにそびえ立つジュビリー・クロックは、ウェイマスの究極の「待ち合わせ場所」となるランドマークです。1888年にヴィクトリア女王のゴールデン・ジュビリーを祝って建てられたこの赤、金、白のビクトリア朝の傑作は、まるで巨人の玩具箱から取り出されたかのようです。 以前は砂浜の石の土台の上にありましたが、エスプラネードがその周りに広がりました！今日では、海岸のあらゆる嵐を王家の威厳をもって乗り越えています。セルフィーに最適な背景です。フィッシュ・アンド・チップスに遅れても、時計のせいにしないでくださいね！

Great place to stop for coffee and cake, opens at 10am

Check out the floral clock in Greenhill gardens. You can see the restored clockwork mechanism, one of very few still working. It "cuckoos" on the hour, quarter and half.

Weymouth seafront is the epitome of a classic British seaside resort, featuring a magnificent, long crescent of golden sandy beach backed by a graceful, sweeping Georgian esplanade. This sheltered bay, known for its gently sloping, safe, and clean waters, makes it an ideal spot for swimming and traditional family holidays, complete with Punch and Judy shows and donkey rides on the sands. The esplanade itself is lined with elegant Georgian terraces now converted into hotels and guesthouses, providing a beautiful, historic backdrop to the lively scene, which leads eastward toward the attractions of the Weymouth Pavilion and the historic Old Harbour.

The most famous historic loading crane on the Isle of Portland is the Red Crane, located at the southernmost tip of the island near Portland Bill Lighthouse. This crane is a well-known industrial relic that highlights Portland's long history with its famous Portland Stone. Original Purpose (Stone Loading): The Red Crane is part of a disused stone-loading quay. In the 19th and early 20th centuries, this area was a working quarry. The original hand-operated wooden crane was used to hoist massive blocks of quarried Portland Stone from the cliff edge down to small sailing vessels waiting below for shipment off the island (often to London for famous buildings like St Paul's Cathedral). Current Primary Use (Fishing): The original wooden crane was replaced with a more durable steel crane (which is still famously painted red, giving it its name). This modern steel crane remains in use today, not for stone, but to help local fishermen lower and raise their small crab and lobster boats from the water.
