A spacious and well-maintained dog park by the beach awaits you. Expect to see happy pups running around without any leash restrictions. However, it's advisable to bring your own waste bags and some sun protection as shade is limited. Fortunately, there's a convenient hose near the bathrooms for a quick wash off. The atmosphere is relaxed and friendly, with adorable dogs and welcoming owners. This spot is definitely worth a visit for a fun day out with your furry friend.

I have to say, this dog beach is truly one of the most serene and tranquil places I have ever visited. It was practically deserted, which made it all the more peaceful. The water was just the right temperature, and the sand was immaculate. The few dogs that were there were all friendly and well-behaved. Although some surfers warned me about the possibility of sharks if you ventured too far out, I didn't let it dampen my spirits. And let me tell you, the long drive to get there was absolutely worth it. I would definitely recommend this beach to any dog lovers out there looking for a peaceful getaway.

This beach is an amazing spot for both furry friends and their human companions! I visited on a sunny Saturday and was pleasantly surprised to see around a hundred pups and their owners frolicking around. All the dogs were amicable and their owners seemed to be quite responsible. Just keep in mind that since it's a dog beach, you might end up with sand and water on you!

This beach is a fantastic spot for both canines and anglers. However, it's important to note that there are no lifeguards on duty, and the presence of a reef suggests the possibility of rip tides, making it less than ideal for swimming. On the bright side, I've had the pleasure of encountering a number of sea turtles and two sharks (which I believe to be Bull sharks based on their fins). If your furry friend isn't well-behaved, it's best to avoid bringing them to this park. Many visitors allow their dogs to run free and frolic, as well as train. Lastly, please be sure to bring a shovel or utilize a shell to clean up after your canine companion.

This beach is an ideal spot for pet owners to enjoy a day out with their furry friends. It offers ample space for dogs to run around and play with other dogs, as well as the opportunity for them to take a dip in the water. Moreover, the beach provides a hose at the exit, which is convenient for cleaning off before heading back home. The sign on A1A is clearly visible, making it easy to find the entrance. However, the road leading to the beach can be a bit rough, so it's important to drive carefully and be mindful of pedestrians and pets.
