Vacations built for kids with disabilities!

Don’t miss this disability-friendly travel list for families in the Los Angeles area!

Summer is finally here, and while in our minds we’re on a sunny beach reading the latest bestseller, in reality, we might be feeling a little nervous about planning our summer trips with our kiddos. Some of us may consider avoiding travel completely. Travel isn’t easy for many of our kids, and planning vacations that are fun, accessible, AND safe can often feel impossible. The world hasn’t quite caught up with providing the necessary accommodations and understanding for our kids. But more and more travel spots are making strides to remove barriers of accessibility — from sensory-friendly national parks to accessible family camps, beaches, and theme parks. Airlines are even starting to make small strides towards progress.

This week, we’re bringing you travel tips and accessible vacation destinations — designed with our kids’ needs in mind — that will help you create a safe and enjoyable summer for you and your family. Whether you’re hitting the open road in an RV, flying across the world, or setting up camp in a state park, we’ve got you covered with these ideas for family travel this summer!

  • Plan a trip for everyone to one of the Best Vacation Spots for Kids with Disabilities.
  • Get out in nature with our guide to Accessible Outdoor Activities in California.
  • Going somewhere farther from home? Be sure to review our airplane travel tips.
  • Enroll in an accessible family camp for daytime or overnight fun.
  • Visit a state or national park with a discount pass.
  • And coming up next week: our ultimate Disneyland disability guide! If you’re planning a trip to the happiest place on Earth with your kids this summer, our guide will help you prepare and plan for everything you’ll need to confidently navigate the magical world of Disneyland with your entire family.

Check out our latest Instagram reel, where we highlight our newest disability-friendly vacation destination finds, including The National Ability Center in Park City, Utah and Everline Resort and Spa in Olympic Valley, California. You can find more vacation spots in part 1 here and part 2 here!
