๐๐ Wild Weston ๐๐
We couldn't help but watch in awe as Weston's seafront was battered this morning after a mixture of a spring tide and high winds hit the town - it really was as wild as a witches cauldron!
Thanks to Kirsty Roberts for sharing this video with us and to our Weston Seafront team for keeping everyone safe.
If you've got any amazing photographs, feel free to share - we'll pull together a montage at the end of the week ๐ธ and don't forget to tag @Visit Weston-super-Mare ๐

Whilst the blue sky in this post seems a distant memory, we can't help but look forward to the spring and summer - and what better way of getting out and about, exploring Weston and our local area, than on a bike!
You'll find the entire length of our Prom here in Weston flat and easy to cycle along (especially good for kids on balance-bikes or first-bikes) and you'll find the start of the Brean Down cycle route at the far end by Royal Sands. We also have the Strawberry Line which is a short hop out of Weston and takes in glorious countryside.
