Wardie Bay Beach

Date of visit: April 2014

I am a carer or friend of a disabled person. I have experience of challenges around: dexterity or coordination and seeing.

Overall Rating

Still tricky to get onto but much cleaner and more dog-friendly than ever!

Disabled Access In and Around

Access to the beach is as simple as a beach could realistically be; there are no steps from 'street-to-sand', though the ground is understandably a tad uneven. With a little care, my mother and her guide dog negotiated the terrain and we were on the beach. A wheelchair user would likely be able to access the beach but it would be better to take someone to provide some assistance.

Parking & Transport

Wardie Bay is on one of North Edinburgh's main roads, there is a bus stop right by the entrance to the beach, no parking space nearby that I'm aware of.

Accessible Toilets

0

The nearest toilets are at the Asda in Leith, a mere 1.5 miles away.

Additional Information

A local resident's group regularly make gallant attempts to clean the beach.
