Beach Wheelchairs

The Parks & Recreation Department has three (3) upright beach wheelchairs and one (1) Mobi floating beach wheelchair available for reservations at the Atlantic Recreation Center for individuals with disabilities.  A refundable security deposit of $100 per chair, paid with a current and valid major credit card (Visa, MasterCard, or Discover), and driver's license are required.  Rental fees are:  $30 per chair for up to 1 week City residents, $38 Non-City.  Please call the Atlantic Recreation Center at 904-310-3350 for availability and reservations.


PLEASE NOTE: 

  • Beach wheelchairs may be reserved for up to 7 consecutive days.  Reservations may be made up to 1 year in advance.
  • We offer an optional delivery and pick-up service for our beach wheelchairs to locations in the City of Fernandina Beach limits.  Delivery/pick-up fee is $50.
  • Mobi-chair:  Although this wheelchair floats, it is not a boat.  The sitting position is stable, and a person will not slip out of the chair under normal conditions of use.  However, for safety reasons, a life jacket is required for non-swimmers.  This chair is not recommended for use in bodies of water with strong currents or waves.
  • If any damages occur to a reserved beach wheelchair during use that exceed $100, then additional charges will be assessed beyond the security deposit.
