Benidorm Beaches Embrace NaviLens for Visual Accessibility

In a pioneering move towards inclusivity and accessibility, Benidorm’s beaches have adopted a ground-breaking technology designed to assist visually-impaired visitors. The idyllic sands of Poniente, Levante, and Mal Pas are now home to state-of-the-art information boards integrated with NaviLens, a technology that opens new possibilities for beachgoers who are blind or visually impaired.

Revolutionizing Beach Experiences for All

NaviLens is not merely a technological addition; it is a cultural shift for Benidorm’s picturesque coastlines. Imagine the comfort and independence of walking along a beach and receiving real-time alerts through your mobile device. Thanks to NaviLens, visually-impaired visitors can access safe bathing information, the condition of the water, and even alerts from lifeguards as they stroll the golden beaches.

A City-Wide Embrace of Change

Benidorm’s adoption of NaviLens stretches beyond its enchanting beaches. This innovative guide system finds its footprint all over the city, enhancing accessibility in streets, tourist brochures, and even dining establishments. With over 30 local restaurants offering braille menus, as initiated by ONCE and the Abreca hospitality association, the city stands as a beacon of inclusivity according to Olive Press News Spain.

A Triumphant Leap in Inclusivity

The excitement doesn’t end at technological advancement; it echoes in the words of Vicente Vazquez, director of ONCE charity in the Marina Baixa. Describing the move as “an exponential leap,” Vazquez highlighted the city’s commitment to making daily life more navigable for the visually impaired community.

Pushing the Boundaries of Possibility

But NaviLens isn’t just a convenience—it’s a testament to what can be achieved when communities prioritize accessibility. Benidorm’s transformative step ensures visually-impaired individuals aren’t just spectators in their experiences but active participants in everything this tourist haven has to offer.

Embrace a future where technology bridges gaps and creates an inclusive environment for everyone to share and enjoy the beauty of Benidorm’s iconic coastal splendor.
