Olympic fever is already underway in Weymouth, which will host the sailing events in both the Olympic and Paralympic Games. Times are good on this slice of the Dorset coast - Weymouth was voted fourth best up- and-coming travel destination by TripAdvisor last year, and there's a whirl of regeneration in the air as the town gears up for London 2012. The lovely beach is the main draw, but the Weymouth and Portland National Sailing Academy offers a fantastic selection of watersports. Mosey on down to the 17th-century Old Harbour, which is a picturesque spot for a drink, boasting some excellent pubs.
