🌊 Enjoying Weston Beach this half term?

Please be aware that some areas of sand are currently softer than usual and can be difficult to walk on.
The softest areas are likely to be:

📍 Along the dunes between Royal Sands and Uphill, including the Windzone

📍 On the beach adjacent to the Tropicana

✅ Stick to firmer, well-trodden routes where possible
✅ Keep an eye on children
✅ Take extra care if using mobility aids, pushchairs or wheelchairs

We hope everyone has a fantastic and safe half-term visit to the seafront. ☀️

Marine Lake in Weston is now open again 🌊

The lake has been temporarily closed since Monday (12 October) to enable our seafront rangers to carry out maintenance on the two sluice gates.

It re-opened today (Wednesday 14 October) at 9am, as planned.

This was part of a series of temporary closures planned for regular maintenance. The gates require frequent checks to make sure that they are operating effectively.

No dredging took place while the lake was temporarily closed, and we don’t currently have further dredging planned.

The next temporary closure is currently planned to take place from Tuesday 24 November to Friday 27 November.

Thanks for your patience while the lake was temporarily closed 🙏

The maintenance schedule for 2027 hasn't yet been agreed. We'll announce future dates for temporary closures when we're able to. Look out for further updates from us 👀

The Weston Beach Race site is taking shape, and we’re busy getting the beach ready for an epic weekend of racing.

As preparations continue, the Weston Beach Promenade is currently closed to the public. For everyone’s safety, walking or cycling through the event area is not permitted while we get everything ready.

Please follow the signage and instructions from our event team.

Reminder: Marine Lake in Weston is now temporarily closed 🚧

We closed the lake this morning (Monday 12 October), in-line with our previous announcement.

The lake is due to reopen at 9am on Wednesday 14 October. This allows for expected high tides to overtop the causeway and refill the lake.

We’re draining the lake to enable our seafront rangers to carry out regular maintenance on the two sluice gates. The gates require frequent checks to make sure that they are operating effectively.

No dredging will be taking place while the lake is temporarily closed, and we don’t currently have further dredging planned.

This temporary closure is part of a series planned for maintenance.

After this week's temporary closure, the next is currently planned to take place from Tuesday 24 November to Friday 27 November.

Keep an eye on this page as we will post reminders about this and the 2027 programme of temporary closures 👀
