Estepona Makes Beaches Accessible with New Adapted Showers

Estepona Improves Beach Accessibility with New Adapted Showers Estepona, Spain – The Estepona City Council has significantly improved beach accessibility for people with reduced mobility by installing two new adapted showers. These showers, located on the popular La Rada and El Cristo beaches, are designed to allow wheelchair users to shower directly from their amphibious chairs, eliminating the need for difficult transfers. "This is a great advancement," said a council spokesperson in a recent video showcasing the new facilities. "Previously, users needed assistance to transfer from their amphibious chair to the shower. Now, it's much more convenient." A user of the new shower, featured in the video, echoed the sentiment, highlighting the ease and comfort of the new design. The video shows the seamless transition between the amphibious chair and the shower. The council has also committed to having technicians on site throughout the swimming season to assist beachgoers with any additional adapted materials they may need. This initiative demonstrates Estepona's commitment to inclusive tourism and creating accessible public spaces for all residents and visitors.
