Bradford Beach

One of the nation's most accessible beaches, thanks to a new 100-foot smooth concrete ramp from the street to the beach - the ramp is 8 feet wide to make it easy for people in wheelchairs to pass each other. A portable non-slip mat closes the rest of the distance between the ramp and the water, helping those with wheelchairs, walkers, or any other difficulties moving on sand access Lake Michigan. Beach wheelchairs are also available for free rental.
