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 provide consultancy, accreditation and training for the maritime sector, supporting organisations with a positive culture of change to ensure barrier-free access to blue spaces for everyone.
Whether a marina or port, commercial shipping company or cruise provider, watersports centre or maritime consultant, the principles of accessibility are fundamental for a thriving maritime sector"
