The Islands of Guernsey have a number of provisions in place, which aim to ensure that where possible the islands are accessible for visitors with different access needs. Information about different considerations that will be important for visitors is listed on this page.
Beaches
There are many bays and beaches accessible for wheelchair users, with access points highlighted in this guide and beach wheelchairs are now available at Pembroke Bay. Visit gsybeachwheelchairs.com for full details.
Parking
The island recognises the blue parking badge scheme and allows visiting blue badge holders to use the accessible (Blue badge) parking spaces. A map of the spaces in St Peter Port can be found here Blue badge parking.
Transport
Guernsey’s low-floor buses are designed to carry passengers with disabilities and have kneeling suspension to make it easy to board - they are fully accessible for the vast majority of wheelchair users. Accessible taxis are also available on Guernsey.
