handicapped accessible sites

[swimmingly]

My 25 year old son is a paraplegic who learned to scuba dive before his injury. He has recently learned to dive with his disability, but we can't seem to find a list of handicapped accessible dive sites. Does anyone know of any lakes or dive areas that have either a lift or a platform where he can roll his wheelchair up to? We are going to New Mexico Memorial Day weekend for a wedding and was wondering if the Blue Hole would be accessible to him. He is still a very strong swimmer, and he loves diving. Since our whole family scuba dives, we have been learning about disability diving, as we are his diving buddies. Any information would be appreciated. Thanks
