Do you have a board walk? I have a daughter in wheelchair that likes to go for walks?

You can walk the flight 800 memorial with a wheelchair. It's a beautiful memorial.

Richard Holbrook | Oct 23, 2017

Some of the areas in the Park complex or Boardwalk, a nice long one to the right of the ranger station. I would suggest an advance trip without the wheelchair first to scope it out

There are board walks from camping area to the beach in at least 3 location, plus the memorial states above. From there you can go further to the beach hut which has an accessible area overlooking the ocean

Yes there is a boardwalk. Like Jeanne said the flight 800 memorial is beautiful

not really

The boardwalk to the right, or the first structure you can see as you enter onto Fire Island from Smith Point Bridge, may have some patches of beach sand blown over, along with a small landing onto an area with beach sand used for educational purposes. So if your daughter can rough it through a small patch of beach sand hear and there, then a trip out to the beach would be great!!! Also, there are some boardwalk areas in the camping area to explore!

Yes

There is a boardwalk. It's not a mile long. If it's a boardwalk along the water your looking for it's not bad

@kevinflynn yes there's a walkway for a decent portion of the beach and in the summer a food bar..

Their is a small area you can bring her with the wheelchair. I would say sunken meadow state park beach. Has a longer boardwalk. Very nice to walk or jog.

Jay D | Oct 23, 2017

If you have the four-wheel-drive pass you would also be able to drive her through the sand down the entire Beach and a truck as well

JULIO C. MORALES | Oct 23, 2017

No, there is no boardwalk. However, there is a wide Plaza in front of the beach.

Ron Hughes | Oct 23, 2017

Small walk try to the right near ranger station.

Joseph Di Chiara | Oct 23, 2017

Small boardwalk. You can get a wheelchair on there without a problem but it's not going to be a long walk.
