Morning all,

Can anyone recommend any beaches with wheelchair/stroller access?

TIA

My cousin who is in a wheelchair visited earlier in the year.
I did a small "rece" and found Deniz Kizi and Escape where the best bets. There are still a few steps but the staff at Deniz Kizi were very helpful, so I'm sure you won't have a problem (we didn't visit Escape)

KALPLICA beach is quite good access for a wheelchair and they have now got a new area which is grass overlooking the beach.

Where is Kaplica Beach please. And can anyone suggest any beaches East of Girne that involve only a few yards walk from the carpark and at most four or five steps with handrail.

Ps as a matter of interest what do Deniz Kizi and Escape and Keplica charge for beach access?

Kervansaray, slope all the way to the beach, no need to negotiate steps - and an area right at the start of the beach with a disabled sign designating an area, not to segregate but to make provision for, disabled persons.

The new beach run by the Belediyesi is open at Karaolanoglu and has wheelchair access, toilets, changing room sand a cafe. Turn right/left [depending from which direction you are coming] at the Bird garage and drive down to the coast.
