Accessibility

We aim to enable as many visitors as possible to experience the stunning views that the Spinnaker Tower has to offer.

With access to View Decks 1 and 2 via the internal lift, audio guides, group guided tours, informative guide books and other facilities, the experience of a visit to the South's must-see attraction can be enjoyed by many.

Information for visitors with mobility impairments

View Decks 1 and 2 can be accessed by the internal lift. Unfortunately at this time the Crow's Nest is only accessible by stairs. In the unlikely event of the Tower being evacuated and the internal lift being unavailable, visitors would have to descend using our emergency staircase of 560 stairs.

Due to fire and safety procedures, visitors with mobility impairments who can use the staircase with some assistance, may be admitted to the Tower a maximum of 2 visitors at any one time. Those visitors who could not use the staircase are limited to one visitor at any time. To facilitate their visit we have an Evac+Chair as well as a trained member of staff available. That visitor should be able to transfer themselves, or with the help of a carer, to the Evac+Chair and also not exceed 23 stone in weight. We recommend that all visitors with mobility impairments book in advance to avoid disappointment.

For further information or to book your visit please call 02392 857521.
