Bradford Beach

 

One of the nation's most accessible beaches is Milwaukee's own Bradford Beach. With a new 100-foot long and eight-foot wide smooth concrete ramp from the street to the beach, accessing Bradford Beach is easy for everyone. A portable non-slip mat closes the rest of the distance between the ramp and the water, helping those with difficulties moving on sand to access Lake Michigan. In addition, beach wheelchairs are available to rent for free.
