Ensuring Comfort and Convenience for Guests with Disabilities
2026 represents the year we committed to making Guanaja a premier, world-class destination for adaptive diving. Guanaja is a spectacular destination that deserves recognition and experience by all. By dedicating our 2026 resources to breaking down physical barriers and safeguarding our natural resources, Clark’s Cay is opening the magic of the biodiverse Mesoamerican Reef to individuals overcoming physical trauma and mobility challenges.
Our 2026 infrastructure overhaul at Clark's Cay so far includes:
- Building four ADA-Compliant Suites integrated into the heart of the resort, purpose-built from the ground up, providing premium comfort and independent mobility for adaptive divers. These mobility-accessible cabañas feature wide entryways, turning space, accessible-height light switches and electrical outlets, an accessible-height kitchenette area, and adapted bathrooms with low-mount sinks, grab bars, and roll-in showers.
- Upgrading our 4 1/2 acre resort footprint to meet ADA requirements for enjoyment of key resort amenities, including island-wide ramps and lift access to the lazy river.
- Designing special ramps for transferring guests from the Ferry Dock to the Clark's Cay transfer boat.
- Designing ramps for embarking and debarking the dive boats at the Resort.
- Creating all new paved paths connecting all key common areas (gift shop, restaurant/bar, wellness center).
- Installing a lift system to access the lazy river.
- Building a low-arch paved bridge to the infinity pool.
We have had the good fortune to have representatives from the Dive Pirates and the Dive Heart organizations visit and critique our efforts. We are grateful for their feedback and will continue to fine-tune anything needed to ensure our visiting adaptive divers have the very best vacation experience.
