Portland Week 2021

Seven days of fun on, in and under the water. Try boating for the first time, or a different type of boating to what you normally enjoy, jump on a paddle board, dive into diving or simply kick back and listen to the music!

The event pages are now live and are being updated daily so check back regularly as we add more activities. Activities can be booked through the eventbrite links or directly with individual providers. Most importantly though, make sure your Pirate or Mermaid garb is ready!

Daily activities are listed listed on that day's individual event page, but there are several activities which run throughout the week so there's always something to do!

 'Threatened Isle' Art Installation - Local artist Ian Dyke's thought provoking exhibition of Gaia and Neptune surrounded and caught in discarded plastic and litter will be on display in the event marquee and the marina office all week. Ian's sobering collection of photographic images highlight the need to look after our stunning coastline and the issue of plastic pollution in the natural environment.

Beach Cleans - Stop by the event marquee and grab your beach cleaning kit, check the map for the areas which haven't yet been covered during the week and choose your spot. When you get back, we'll weigh, clean and sort your finds and add them to week's collection ready for handing over for reuse or recycling with Keep Britain Tidy's Ocean Recovery Project. You'll also get a voucher for a free cuppa from the kind folks at Frontline Coffee Shop for every bag of rubbish collected!
