There is level access to the Shell Gallery with sufficient space for most wheelchairs to make their way round, although this might not be possible for large motorised wheelchairs.

The Fishermen’s Lifeboat Museum is accessed via a sloping walkway, requiring some care. Inside there are steps onto a platform from which the inside of the boat is viewed unfortunately there is not sufficient space alongside the boat for wheelchair access, but the front of the lifeboat museum is accessible and we have large photographs displaying the inside of the boat house for those who cannot access inside the museum.
