- HeatherFeb 1, 2024Beautiful location with limitations
The dogs enjoyed the dunes and the beach. Dogs were not allowed in the visitor center, or like others have said the wildlife areas.
- SueAug 26, 2023Go to the Beach not the Wildlife refuge.
I don't get the poor ratings. THis is the BEST BEACH I've ever been at with our dog. It was deserted. Yes, the dog can't go on the wildlife side of the refuge, but if you want a place for your dog to run, you have miles and miles of nearly deserted beach for your dog to enjoy.
- AngliaJul 10, 2019not allowed at beach
No dogs allowed on the west side of 12, but they can go across the highway to the beach.
- ErinMay 19, 2018Don't bring Fido
Although their .gov website says dogs are allowed at Pea Island, we drove 40 minutes only to discover dogs are not allowed on wildlife trails. Huge bummer. There are plenty of other places nearby that are dog-friendly. Try those instead.
- EmilyMore than a year agoNot very pet friendly
We drove through the area today hoping for a long walk with our dog only to discover that the island has many, many regulations. Dogs are not allowed on any of the trails where you can view the wildlife. It appears they are only allowed on the dunes but there are not many legal parking places by which to access the dunes. Big disappointment.
