We have a lot of unique experiences exploring accessible destinations and attractions. Every once in a while something sticks out as exceptionally fun and accessible – we share those here.
North Alabama
From space adventures at the U.S. Space & Rocket Center and hands-on science at the Cook Museum to butterfly magic at Huntsville Botanical Garden, North Alabama blends accessibility with genuine Southern hospitality. Even the historic village at Burritt on the Mountain has been renovated for access. Don’t miss the all abilities playground at Kids Kingdom, or dining in a jail cell at Main Street Cafe. It’s not just about access—it’s about belonging, and here, that welcome shines through every experience. You can check out our full itinerary here.
Columbia River Gorge, Oregon
Accessible waterfalls may be my absolute favorite thing, and Multnomah Falls is near the top of my waterfalls list. After checking out the waterfalls, amaze your kids with Herman the Sturgeon,a massive 500 pound fish, at Bonneville Hatchery. Hike an accessible trail, stay by the river, and spend every moment amazed by the views.
Rehoboth Beach, Delaware
A place where sand can’t keep you from sea! Rehoboth Beach offers free beach wheelchairs, mobi mats, an accessible boardwalk, and an inclusive downtown experience. If you get tired of the beach vibes, explore the great outdoors with a free track chair at a nearby state park, or head inside to an accessible museum. The options are limitless. You can check out how we spent our time here.
Pompano Beach, Florida
A second accessible beach? Why not – it’s summertime! Pompano Beach is one of those easy destinations with everything in one spot. Park for free in the designated spaces by the Ocean Rescue building and pick up your free beach wheelchair by calling the number on the front door of the building. Spend your day by the ocean, then head down the accessible walkway for dinner and views on the accessible pier. If you’re into fishing, this would be another great spot to spend your day. There are accessible restrooms near the playground and by the pier. The playground has a smooth surface, but it’s mostly climbing structures.
