Accessible Beaches on the Isle of Wight
The following info is from the Visit Isle of Wight website and others, please use the links (if there is one) to go to that site to get the most up to date and additional information. Sadly extensive research failed to find much on beach accessibility for the island - After a decade of the Equality Act it is still much easier to find out if you can take a dog onto a beach than it is a wheelchair!
| Freshwater | Colwell Bay |
The beach is down a short road from the main Yarmouth to Totland road, there is a good sized car park with toilets and access for the disabled is good. We understand there is a concrete slipway to the beach |
| Cowes | Cowes Beach | There is level access from the car park to the beach. |
| Ryde | Ryde Beach | We understand there is a concrete slipway to the beach - |
