Dorchester is a short drive away and worth a visit. I would recommend heading for this site which is free! There’s a car park right next to it and afterwards you can walk along the river and into Dorchester Town. A lovely trip.

City/town information
Lovely marina and award winning sandy beach, the esplanade has many places to eat. It is a rare thing, sadly, to find such a Victorian seaside town in such impeccable state! Check out the stupendous monument to King George (who stayed on Portland!) close to where one boards/gets off the bus, the beautiful helter skelter and donkey rides (£5) on the beach.
Some fab fish restaurants as well as cinema and shopping, a Sealife Centre and amazing sand structure exhibition centre.

Sailing Centre, Olympic standard
Many National and International events plus individual opportunities for water sports. It’s about a 10-15 minute walk from the house or a 3-5 minute drive, and even closer from the apartment! (Very close to Lidl's) There’s plenty of parking there.
