Beach Wheel Chairs

Everyone can get on the beach in Great Yarmouth!

Great Yarmouth has five specially designed beach wheelchairs with large pneumatic wheels which just slide over sand so that everyone in your party can enjoy the beach.

Whether it's a lazy day on the sand, or a brisk stroll along the beach in spring or autumn with the dog, come and hire a beach wheelchair from the Tourist Information Centre so that everyone in the family can enjoy the sand.

Pushers are required as it's a little tricky to manhandle the wheels in the usual way, however users this year were delighted to be able to get on the sand without having to be dug out again and several commented that it had been years since they had been able to go on the beach in a more traditional wheelchair.

Staff in the Tourist Information Centre will be pleased to look after your traditional wheelchair whilst you have a beach wheelchair out on loan.

If you'd like to make sure that we've got a beach wheelchair spare for you to use, just give us a call on 01493 846346 and we'll make sure one is ready and waiting for you!
