Weston-Super-Mare is a large seaside town in the United Kingdom in the county of Somerset, just 18 miles from the infamous city of Bristol. The town boasts a gorgeous coastline with wide open sandy beaches and plenty traditional seaside attractions. In recent years, the people and council of Weston have upgraded the local area – putting time, money and effort into making it the best it can be. The incredible pier has been rebuilt with the promenade offering picturesque views of the Bristol Channel and the Flat Holme Islands.
In Weston-Super-Mare, there are things to do in abundance all along the seafront and a little more in-land too. From donkey rides, to traditional amusements and arcades, Weston Beach is perfect for a family holiday or getaway. Although we love to visit Weston in the summer, it is also a lovely place to visit in the winter too. Every year, the carnival is held in November with homemade floats, lights and dances for everyone to watch. It is a great time to celebrate the town, and the perfect night out with friends, or an experience for the kids to remember.
Both locals and tourists alike spend all year round in Weston-Super-Mare and the town holds a special place in peoples hearts all over the country (and even the world).

Things To Do in Weston-super-Mare
Weston-Super-Mare isn’t short of things to do. Its vibrant high street and bustling locals make it the ideal place to see and do things all year round. There are plenty of novelty seaside shops and souvenir parlours, as well as bars, cafes and restaurants to sink your teeth into. There is so much to see and do in Weston – where should you start?
Visit the Grand Pier
The Grand Pier is easily one of Weston-Super-Mare’s most famous and well-known spots in the whole town. Ask anyone who has ever been to the area and they are bound to recommend heading over to the Grand Pier. The cosy indoor-fairground and daily events means this is the ideal spot for families and friends to gather all year round – oh and it is just a stone throw away from the sea too (literally) so when you’re finished spending time at the pier, you can go for a stroll up the seafront and take in more of the sights of Weston.
Follow the Weston Street Art Trail
Who doesn’t love a bit of street art? Fans of Banksy flock to Weston-Super-Mare every year. Since Banksy created Dismaland in 2015, artists have come to the area to see if they can recreate some of his work – and in doing so, they found their own inspiration. Painted by JPS, who is a local artist, you can spot 15 pieces of their work along this artists trail – with other adding to it over the years too. The charm, wit and humour of each piece is unlike any other, so it is a must see for buddying artists and others interested in the art scene.
Mendip Hills
Hidden away to the eat of Weston-Super-Mare you’ll find the Mendip Hills. These hills are some of the UKs most scenic natural landscapes to explore. With picturesque limestone, the Mendips was officially declared an area of outstanding natural beauty and it is ideal for hikers, but also people just looking to stroll through some incredible British countryside. You can spend a whole day getting lost, weaving in and out of the hills and taking photo after photo. Along with this, if you have all day, you can also find Cheddar Gorge nestled right within the Hills themselves – and this is a must see for anyone in the local area.
Eating Out in Weston-super-Mare
Like any seaside town, Weston-Super-Mare isn’t short of places to eat. In fact, along the Boulevard you’ll find the best fish and chips in the whole of Somerset. With nearly 2,000 positive Google reviews, Papa’s is an award winning restaurant that tourists flock to all year round. You cannot visit Weston without trying out taking the time to try a Papa’s fish and chips. Along with fish and chips (obviously) there are other eateries all over the town. From idyllic cafes, to traditional English pubs – there is something to be found for everyone here.
Milton Larder
The Milton Larder is the perfect place to go if you’re after breakfast or a light lunch. They have also have a daily selection of freshly baked cakes and pastries and fresh tea and coffee at the ready. Children are also well catered for and are invited to choose anything from the menu and it will be made at half the size – for half the price too.
Duets
If you’re looking for a little bit more of a fine dining experience, then Duets is ideal. This cosy restaurant with chic dining has perfectly crafter dishes inspired by mainland Europe. There are weekly fish special that are produced from the Brixham Fish Market in Devon, and these change regularly depending on what is on offer that day. The chefs pride themselves in knowing what the local people of the town like, and they spend a lot of time learning about new dishes they can offer their regulars. Tourists always speak lovingly of Duets, as it ties together cosiness and fine dining perfectly.
The Grove Bistro
The Grove Bistro has many a returning customer thanks to its relaxed ambience and delicious, yet affordable food. The menu at the Grove is simple and concise and perfectly moreish for anyone looking for a bite to eat – no matter the occasion. We also love that the Grove is only a short distance from the local Playhouse, so it is extremely popular with the Popular with the pre- and post-theatre scene.
