  Fun picking up debris

  Be sure and stop at the visitor center and pick up free trash bags. Our pups ran free and played while we enjoyed cleaning up. Lots of debris gets washed up on this beautiful preserve.

  A Wonderful Place!

  A great place to take walks around sunrise or sunset! Be careful if you use the car driving entrance to the beach because we got stuck several times. But great beach and shells!

  Beautiful Dog-friendly Beach!

  The beach is very clean and a beautiful place to walk with your dog. Our little Maggie enjoyed playing tag with the waves, chasing seagulls, and meeting other dogs and their owners. Our beach walks were the highlight of our vacation!

  Great Beach Camping

  We camped on North Beach with our dogs (who love the beach) and it was amazing!!! Beautiful beach, lots of space for running and digging! Kept them on a long leash they had a great time!! Highly recommend for anyone who wants to camp on the beach with dogs or just have a great beach day with them!!!

  Beautiful beach!

  This beach was great! I kept my dog on his 16 foot leash so he could run around and play in the waves! Safety and beauty!

  be responsible

  to have A good time simply be responsible do not be the stupid person who lets their dog off the leash and always pick up after your dog. other than almost walking in dog poo it was fantastic

  great beach, but keep dogs on leash

  Tourists lose their dogs by letting them run loose on the beach. Obey the leash laws please.

  eh.

  Dogs are allowed on the beaches, but this beach is an on leash beach only, they have patrols combing the beach to remind anyone without a leash on their pet to put one on.
