Don't we (taxpayers et al) provide free beach wheelchairs at the public beach accesses w/ lifeguards?

That's great. Make sure and let the TDC know about this service. They can be reached at 850.267.1216 or at the building on the corner of 98 and 331. This is a service I know they would want to pass along to visitors who call them.

One other thought is to let the South Walton Fire District know as they manage the County's current beach wheelchair system. Their website is SWFD - HOME.

Hi folks:
thank you very much for your comments, ideas and advice. Please understand that our service is located in Gulf Shores/Orange Beach Alabama. We realize that this is a Fort Walton Beach Florida forum. However, we have already served several customers from your area and we felt it would be a good idea to let more people know about our service.
As for as we know, we are the only motorized beach wheelchair rental service in the United States. Most of the free chairs available are manual -- meaning that someone has to push you. When the sand gets really dry, it is almost impossible to push someone through heavy, deep sand. Our chairs slice right through it.
In addition to all of this, our chairs give a person in need, this freedom and independence that cannot be achieved with a manual chair.

A wonderful service you are providing. But, to be clearer...this a Beaches Of South Walton County message board. Best of luck in your endeavor!

Yes they do.

Yes there are wheelchairs at all public accesses w/lifeguards. They were purchased with tourist development taxes. Actually, I believe the entire lifeguard program is supported with TDC taxes.

Additional beach wheelchairs added to rental fleet

Beach power rentals opened for business in April of 2009. At that time we had five motorized beach wheelchairs in our fleet. By mid-June we were aware that five chairs would not be enough. By the end of August, we had nine full-time chairs in our rental fleet. At times, we still had to turn down business because we did not have enough chairs.

Since this is a completely new business without a track record of any kind, we had no idea of what to expect. We take our business very seriously. There are so many people who cannot get to the beach for one reason or another. As soon as word got out to the condos and the convention and visitors Bureau and to many of the locals in Gulf Shores, our business began to jump.

During the off-season, we plan to build an additional nine chairs, bringing our total to 20 motorized beach wheelchairs. We hope this will satisfy the additional demand. If it does not, we will continue to build beach wheelchairs until we have enough to give anyone wants one, a chair.

We had a lot of customers who traveled from Panama City to Gulf Shores in order to rent one of our chairs. We appreciate your business and all of the referrals you have sent to us. Thank you!
