    Super cute spot!

    only spot our dog was allowed during the summer month! LOTS of sea shells so careful with your pups feet! great spot if your dog loves swimming! my dog thoroughly enjoyed being able to cool down in the calm waters!

    Don’t Go!

    Signs say no dogs allowed on the beach. It was gross, small and full of badly behaved children.

    Perfect park!

    This park was so great we came here three times during our week in Newport! Many of the Newport beaches don’t allow dogs during the summer months, but at King Park we found some small beaches where we could bring our girl. Dogs are allowed in the water and all over the park area, as long as they’re leashed (though we did meet a few watchful dog owners who let their pets go for a swim leash-free).
    The small beach areas are more pebbles than sand, but it was good enough for us! There were also plenty of shady trees and benches.
    Definitely recommend a visit if you’re looking for a relaxing spot with a great view of the boats, or a place to sunbathe and swim that’s less crowded than the larger beaches.
