Windsurfing at Overcombe Beach
Where to kite - Overcombe Beach, Weymouth, Dorset

Overcombe lies to the north eastern end of Weymouth Bay, an enormous bay facing south east. Over the past few years £8m have been spent on sea defences, building up the beach and improving the promenade and cycleway that runs all the way into Weymouth town. How to get here - Overcombe (or Preston Beach as it is sometimes known) can be approached either through Weymouth or from the north along the A353 Dorchester to Bournemouth road.

Secondwind carries plenty of stock throughout the year from good quality used equipment to the latest state-of-the-art gear. Regular races, demos and events are held. All sorts of Hire kit available. [Contact us]

OVERCOMBE

From Weymouth simply follow the signs for A353 all the way along the sea wall. At the end of the wall you will see the flags of the Secondwind shop - turn right up the hill. The On the Beach car park is just on the right.

If you are arriving from the north or east along the A353 you will drop down towards the coast through Preston and then into Overcombe. Just before the sea wall turn left off the main road and then right into the car park.

Parking is free in the winter.

Sailing Conditions - The beach faces south east so the best wind directions are from the south west - (cross shore from the right) or easterlies (cross shore from the left).

South westerly winds give excellent sailing straight out to sea with the possibility of some swell and breaking waves near the beach. If the conditions are right it can produce epic jumping and front-side waveriding.
