Mobile on the beach

Beach experience despite limited mobility

Getting to the beach independently and without assistance: This is possible with the beach-compatible, electronic wheelchair called cadWeazle in Westerland, Wenningstedt, and Hörnum. These electronic beach wheelchairs are whisper-quiet, environmentally friendly, easy to handle, and reliable in use. Guests with disabilities or mobility impairments can use them on the beach and along the tideline. However, these all-terrain vehicles are not permitted in the water.

The balloon tires, the comfortable seat, a joystick and a battery-powered motor make this chic beach mobile, which can travel up to 6 km/h, a speedy means of transport.
