Weymouth and Portland are located in the southwestern county of Dorset on the Jurassic Coast, a 95-mile stretch of coastline that is a World Heritage Site and renowned for its stunning beaches and fossils. This beautiful county is full of rolling green fields and picturesque towns.
Weymouth is conveniently located near the county town of Dorchester, a historic town with numerous monuments, museums, shops, boutique cafés, lakes and wildlife to discover.
While London, Oxford and Stonehenge, the major English attractions, are included in our excursion programme, you will also have the opportunity to visit local attractions such as the Purbecks, a stunning peninsula, or Durdle Door, a huge rock arch in the sea.
Weymouth has retained many of the characteristics of a traditional, authentically British coastal town. With amusement arcades, pedal boats, donkey rides and a beautiful harbour, it offers a quintessentially British experience. For students visiting this friendly town, there is plenty to do and see. Weymouth is rich in history and architecture, from the Georgian splendour of Weymouth architecture to the Victorian Nothe Fort and Weymouth's historical significance in various wars, there is plenty of history to discover.

English & Sailing, Windsurfing or Outdoor Adventures
Your course includes 15 hours of English lessons (including placement test and introductory lesson) and 12 hours of sailing lessons per week. On Monday afternoons, evenings and Saturdays, we take part in the regular leisure programme together with the other students. English lessons take place Monday to Friday from 9:00 to 12:30, while sailing/windsurfing lessons comprise 3 hours on 4 afternoons from Tuesday to Friday each week. You will learn sailing/windsurfing in English from professional instructors, and if the weather is too windy, you will take part in the leisure programme with the other students.
Sailing
Whether you are a complete beginner or already have a little or a lot of experience, there is a course to suit you. If you are a complete beginner, you will start with the theoretical basics and then learn all the fundamental aspects of sailing, including ropes, rigging, launching, landing and wind awareness. By the end of the course, you will have a basic understanding of how a boat sails and will have gained some experience in steering and handling the boat. For participants with previous experience, the lessons are more advanced. At the end of the course, you will receive a certificate from the Royal Yachting Association, at least Level 1 of the Young Sailor's Scheme.
Windsurfing
Whether you are a complete beginner or already have some experience, there is a course for you. Beginners start with the basics of getting into the water and sailing the board across the wind and back, before practising tacking and jibing on a course, which allows you to move towards and away from the wind. By the end of the course, you will be able to sail to a chosen point on the water in light winds and return to your starting point. Lessons are more advanced for students with previous experience. Upon successful completion of the course, you will receive a Royal Yachting Association certificate, at least Level 1 of the Youth Windsurfing Scheme.
Outdoor activities
Outdoor activities include mountain biking, climbing, paddling and kayaking, all of which take place in the Portland area, a natural paradise for those who enjoy the outdoors. The activities are led by highly experienced instructors who will help you learn new skills and have lots of fun in the process. We can offer additional activities for groups on request.
All ability levels can participate, but for water activities you must be able to swim at least 25 metres. For your safety, you will be asked to wear flotation devices at all times on the water. Please bring your swimwear, a beach towel and beach shoes; all other equipment will be provided by the outdoor adventure school, including bicycles, helmets, climbing equipment, wetsuits and flotation devices.
