Overall Rating
Good
A beach with boardwalk access and beach friendly wheelchairs available to borrow for free that your able bodied friend / family member can wheel you down the beach a into the sea.
Disabled Access In and Around
Good
Access to the boardwalk was unrestricted. If using a stick make sure you place it on the planks and not in the gaps. A gentle slope to the sand and 2 benches.
Parking & Transport
Good
Plenty of parking on a dusty gravel flat area.
Accessible Toilets
0Didn't notice any but a cafe 100 m away.
Staff
Excellent
Very helpful. Spoke good English and explained that if I left photo ID I could borrow a chair that would enable me to get in and out of the sea.
Additional Information
It's great to be able to get into the sea with ease, wherever the tide is. I can feel free a un-disabled floating and swimming with a wide and daughter. You made need help being pulled back up the beach but there are life guards that can help. The chairs are available between 1pm to 5pm. These chairs are also available in Carnac Place du Ster in Penmarch, Morgat near Crozon and Benodet.
