West Bay Discovery Centre

Run by a local charity West Bay Discovery Centre is an award-winning visitor centre situated on the edge of the beach inside the former Methodist Chapel in West Bay. There is something for every member of the family at West Bay Discovery Centre. Our hands-on interactive activities are designed to provide a shared learning experience for families and are popular with all ages. The centre is accessible to buggy and wheelchair users and our displays use a variety of audio and visual mediums. Our volunteers are always on hand to help. There’s always something fun to do. The Centre is a great place to learn about West Bay. We love seeing our visitors playing: they can shelter boats from a storm, build a cliff and identify West Bay’s fishing catch or our local wildlife and feel in the “hidey-hole” for creatures from the sea. Our children’s activity bench offers a changing range of activities during the school holidays, which are extremely popular. Come along and join in the fun.
