Overview

https://www.visithengistburyhead.co.uk/Home.aspx We love this for a family day out to the beach with and without dogs/bikes. The beach is about as accessible as beaches can be if you have a suitable wheelchair, and if not the ribbon of tarmac that runs from the carpark to the beach huts (1.5m) is about as close to the action as you can get. Ample disable parking with accessible WC and cafe WC on route at various points

There are 20+ blue badge spaces but you must pay unless you have a BCP Permit with is £26 per year

Accessible WC 15m from carpark. Huge but not the cleanest.

Hikers cafe entrance. I have never been in because there are tables outside but looks accessible

Nearest beach is accessed by a compacted fitted path

Then tarmac

At low tide the sand is compacted

Stunning

Compacted trim to cafe/restaurant

Ferry to/from nearby Medford which is not accessible to wheelchairs but walkers who struggle distance could use this route by parking at Medford quay

Bad photo of cafe entrance, I do fit my wheelchair in

Outside seating too
