Mother and daughter meet the ocean for the first time! Mother is a water fanatic, titled in dock diving and daughter is following in mom's pawprints. They had a BLAST. This was after season's end when dogs are allowed on beach any time of day and with no one in sight we cheated a bit going off leash, as I saw others do in the days to come. Everyone respected the rights of others and I didn't see any problem dogs- lots of happy ones!
even on a sunny day in mid September there's plenty of space to be found on this dog friendly beach. A few days earlier it was rainy enough to allow us to have the beach all to ourselves for nearly an hour.
