Accessible Eilat

In recent years, Eilat has made many sites accessible to the handicapped, enabling this sector of the population to gain entry to nearly every beach, and if not right up to the water's edge, then at least to the beach ·bar! Recently the Eilat municipality opened the beach opposite the Neptune Hotel to people in wheelchairs, offering them wheelchair access right up to the water's edge by way of a special path from the promenade right down to the sea. This path passes between two official bathing beaches: the Papaya and the Nikki Beach, with chairs and sun loungers for rent, a drinks bar, toilet and shower facilities and very close to the lifeguard and first -aid stations. Accessibility for the handicapped is also available at the IMAX theater and all the attractions at Kings City The elevator in the tower allows for access to the Underwater Observatory and at the Dolphin Reef, the handicapped are also invited to swim and dive with the dolphins, accompanied by an instructor. Other attractions in Eilat are being refurbished to allow for wheelchair accessibility About a year ago, the Sea Bell was launched in Eilat, a 32 sq. meter boat fully equipped for the handicapped. Originally a Ukrainian fishing vessel, the wood-clad Sea Bell was completely renovated, with three levels of wide decks, hot showers, a bar, and an onboard speedboat for fun activities at sea. A special elevator installed in the vessel enables passengers to pass from deck to deck and down to the water and back. The Sea Bell offers both long and short cruises, night anchorage in the marina and more.
