ringstesd beach near weymouth is lovely. wrasse pollack and bass on float, fantastic reef to swim around at low tide. and crystal clear. take some snorkelling gear and you will see more fish than you could ever catch. chesil beach is good for fishing but not good for swimming

hi big dee, the stone pier, at the end of weymouth harbour is a good place to fish. if you fish the harbour side of it near the nothe fort, you have a small pebble beach, seaward side for your little ones to play / swim. the pier does get crowded, but there are lots of mackie,garfish, pollock and wrasse to be caught on mackie baits. the occasional plaice fished on the bottom harbour side is a possibility as well. good luck. matt
