Innovative Beach Access Solutions (e.g., iSEATRACK)

Innovative technologies, like solar-powered beach access devices, empower people with disabilities by enabling independent and accessible access to the shoreline. These solutions also contribute to environmental monitoring.

  • Equip bathing beaches with accessible devices, such as iSEATRACK.
  • Provide clear signage and instructions for device use.
  • Train lifeguards and staff on disability awareness and proper assistance techniques.
  • Equip accessible points with safety measures such as slip-resistant flooring, handrails, and clear demarcation of different zones (e.g., swimming areas, pathways, and resting areas).
  • Maintain devices regularly to ensure functionality and safety.
