Beach Accessibility
Are you planning on going to the beach this summer? How do you prepare for the beach? Does the beach you go to have accessible mats and beach wheelchairs for rent? Is parking a wheelchair accessible vehicle difficult? What are some activities you like to do at the beach? Is the heat or ever trying to get into the water difficult? If you spend the day at the beach, do you find you need day to recover?

I think you ask all the good questions. Usually I walk out on the sand with my hiking sticks. My cane alone will not do it. I have reached the point where any type of beach chair is difficult, so I’ve decided I might look into a portable massage table which can act as a chair or a lounging chair or bed. I do not go into the water because the waves will knock me down but if I’m ever fortunate enough to be somewhere where the ocean is calm I could probably try it with my hiking sticks. I know that once I am in the water I will be able to swim easily. In the water I can also do things I can’t do outside the water like jumping and running

Dani, yes, and make sure to get one where you can adjust height so it’s perfect for you. They are comfy!
