Hi Vanessa

I’d give Hamilton Island a call and speak to their beach sports team. They have hire rates up for the different equipment for day trippers so I can’t see why not. I guess it would be on a first come first served basis.

Enjoy, it’s such a beautiful area.

Hi Julie! I’m planning to visit whitsundays and your blog is helping me a lot! Thank you for that!
I was wondering if I can do all Hamilton’s island activities without being a guest of the island. I’m planning to stay in Airlie and visit Hamilton and Whitsundays. Do you know if I’ll be able to get/rent the beach wheelchair as you did? Can you provide some contact here? I did not find any direct e-mail in the website you gave. Best and keep updating us!

Hi Jen,

I’m so glad we’ve opened your eyes to opportunities. I have lots more to write about Hamilton. It certainly won’t suit everyone but if you can transfer from your wheelchair I think you’ll find lots to do.

I wrote in detail about BJ’s wheelchair tyres here – https://havewchairmove.wpengine.com/off-road-wheelchair-wheels/ and here -https://havewchairmove.wpengine.com/off-road-wheelchair-tyres/ They’ve definitely been a big help in our travels as we can go places the regular tyres won’t take us. We swap them over just for travel or adventures.

Thanks for your kind wishes and all the best to you in 2017. I hope you get to Hamilton Island.

Thanks so much this and your other posts about the island. I’m w/c bound [but luckily I can transfer to] & I briefly considereda holiday there as the views are truly spectacular, but when I asked a friend/carer who had been there recently,she told me it wouldn’t be suitable at all. How wrong was she! It’s definitely back on my bucket list.

I love reading about w/c suitable sights & activities.
Keep up the brilliant info Julie, it’s really really appreciated.

Wishing you an amazing 2017!

Smiles,

Jen 🙂

PS: What are the tyres on BJ’s wheelchair?
