ACCESSIBLE ATTRACTIONS: St. Petersburg, Florida


Our ratings are...

Fully Accessible - You can access all of the attraction, with no problem, in any type of wheelchair.

Mostly Accessible - You can access most of the attraction, and all of the important parts of it, with your wheelchair.

Partially Accessible - You can access a good deal of the attraction but some parts are inaccessible and some important parts you'll miss.

Inaccessible - Kind of speaks for itself, avoid if you're in a wheelchair.

Here's St. Petersburg, Florida...



Tropicana Field - Fully Accessible. Home of the Tampa Bay Rays baseball team. Click on the link for more information.


Gizella Kopsick Arboretum - Fully Accessible. Palm and cycad garden on the waterfront at Vinoy Beach.


Sunken Gardens - Mostly Accessible. Spectacular jungle gardens, a preserved and genuine Florida roadside attraction. A few paths are a bit steep and there are a few steps here and there but they are easily detoured around. You won't miss anything.


Vinoy Beach and Park - Mostly Accessible. Beachfront path is easily negotiated with a wheelchair. Dolphins swam right up next to us. The sandy beach is more problematic but there is an accessible path out to the water on top of a storm drain pipe near the restrooms.


Canopy Rooftop Lounge - Fully Accessible. A fun place to relax with a drink on top of the Birchwood Hotel in St. Pete. Easily accessed by a ramp on the south side of the building, which will take you to the elevator to the roof.
