SMILE Mass (Small Miracles in Life Exist) has donated over 100 floating beach wheelchairs to public beaches in Massachusetts.
* PLEASE CHECK WITH EACH LOCATION FOR COVID-19 UPDATES, RULES and REGULATIONS.
These wheelchairs can roll from the parking lot, across the sand, and right into the water — allowing anyone with special needs to access the beach.
Families can now take their disabled family member to ocean beaches on Cape Cod, the North Shore and the South Shore, as well as to town lakes in Harvard, Natick, New Bedford, Sharon and Wayland.
* You can see all beaches with wheelchairs available on the SMILE Mass website.
* You may need to contact each beach to see if reservations are needed for the equipment.
