Entrances to the city center beach are equipped with posts for the blind with pictograms and Braille description of the
10 direction which is facilitated by wooden ramps. A playground with equipment for children with disabilities is also provided along with umbrellas for sun protection. The city center beach offers toilets and showers for people with disabilities and people with mobility impairments can take advantage of bathing chairs at the bathing site (so-called amphibian). Gdynia's beaches provide accessibility audits describing and illustrating access to them. The city’s lifeguards have been trained to communicate with people with sight, hearing or multiple disabilities and have trained methods and techniques for transferring, supporting and assisting people at the bathing sites.
