How to get there for the physically disabled
The following information is obtained from Access Singapore.

1. Prior arrangements can be made with the Sentosa Customer Service Department (tel:(65) 1800-736 8672) for people with disabilities to be driven in.

2. Ambulant-disabled may try the bus if overcoming the bus steps does not prove difficult.

3. Access is difficult from the cable car tower to the entrance of Sentosa as there are many steps. Prior arrangement with the cable car company is recommended so that assistance can be rendered.

4. The buses are not accessible to wheelchair users as there are steps at the door. The Beach Train is also not accessible to wheelchair users.

5. Another way to get around is by walking or wheeling to destinations within Sentosa. As Sentosa is a relatively large attraction. It is therefore wise to plan your route. An alternative is to travel by the coastal track where the pavement is even and easier to wheel or walk. However, the coastal track provides access to only some attractions within Sentosa and the journey is longer.

6. We try our best to help our wheelchair-bound visitors to enjoy as much of the island as possible. Contact us via email or give us a call at hotline: 1800-SENTOSA (736-8672). Wheelchairs are available for loan from the Visitor Arrival Centre from 9am. Please return wheelchairs by 9.30pm. Please enquire at the ticketing counters for more details. There are wheelchair-friendly toilets available at beaches.
