Vision
Barrier-free access to blue spaces for everyone
“We all deserve the opportunity to experience the freedom, wellbeing and sense of adventure that being on the water can provide.
When I'm on the water, I am not defined by my disability. I am defined by the independence and adventure that the sea provides.”

"We founded Accessible Oceans to support organisations with a positive culture of change to ensure access to blue spaces for all.
Whether a marina or port, commercial shipping company or cruise provider, watersports centre or maritime consultant, the principles of accessibility are central to a thriving maritime sector. Access to the blue space can be both life-changing for an individual - and of significant commercial benefit to an organisation."
Neil Wilson, Director
