East Looe Beach
Getting there: East Looe beach is a soft, sandy beach which is about 15 minutes for pedestrians to access from the main car parks through the town.
Access: There are three ramps down to the beach which are suitable for most wheelchairs.
In addition, those using mobility scooters or wheelchairs can use the concrete steps at the rear of the beach to sit beside family and friends if they prefer not to go onto the sand.
Facilities: There is an accessible toilet to the west of the beach near the Lifeboat station and harbour entrance. This is not a Changing Places toilet but big enough for most wheelchair users. It has a handrail and an emergency cord.
Please note this facility is available using a RADAR key and it is locked at, (or just before) 8pm each evening.
Places to eat: There is a café, The Pier, with level access just behind the beach, and many more cafés and fish & chips shops, and pasty sellers nearby in the town.
Sandchair hire? It is hoped sandchairs will soon be available to hire from the Old Lifeboat Gallery behind the beach.
