Location : Spain, Costa Brava, San Pere Pescador, La Escala (4 km)
Time of visit : July 1994
Description: The camping is 100% flat, located behind the dunes, close to the beach, though there is no wheelchair access to the beach, unless you have a 4WD chair. The camping places are rather small and have little shade. Main roads are made of asphalt. Recently we received a newsletter announcing a new feature for rollies: a specially designed path allowing you to take your wheelchair onto the beach.
Reception : Fully accessible for wheelchair users, only a 5 cm step at the entrance.
Shop & Supermarket : fully accessible, no steps.
Swimming pool, terrace, restaurant, self-service and bar: 100% access, but there is no hydraulic elevator for the pool.
Bathroom: very well equipped private bathroom for disabled people, with key, sliding door, WC with 2 foldable grips, WC about 40 cm high. Sink and mirror ok. Shower with foldable seat attached to the wall. The seat is in perforated metal, with a circular opening allowing you to wash your......................... and covered with a plastic cushion trying to protect your sitting bones. But be careful because the circular opening has very sharp edges so watch out for scratches on your ..........!! The shower is located in the corner of the bathroom and disposes of 1 fixed grip on the right side, and 1 foldable grip on the left side, the seat is about 40 - 45 cm high. The bathroom has no alarm.
Remark: More than one person can dispose of a key for this bathroom. There is no separate locking possibility inside, so asking the reception to make a little panel "occupado" to put outside could be useful, because you might not be the only one using the bathroom, and not everyone knocks on the door before going in......
