    Best place in Key Largo

    Nice relaxed park with large grassy area where our dog can run off leash. Now keep in mind that the on-site rules state that dogs should be leashed, but the staff don't enforce this. Dog owners here are very aware of this fact and are careful not to cause reason for the rule to be enforced.
    This is the best dog clean up of anywhere we have been in the US, which generally is not good.
    In our experience here, dogs that were off leash were very well behaved and sociable with other dogs.
    Keep in mind that although the park is mostly fenced, there is an open gate leading to a very busy road.
    Dogs can swim in the ocean here. We saw manatees and large tarpon in the swimming area on several occasions throughout the winter months.
    Nice swimming area to swim with your dog.

    Good

    I imagined that the area was much larger. There are several shores where the water level is low but the one by the stairs is quite deep and a warning sign says that you swim at your own risk. I really didn't feel safe. I would prefer to go a bit further (Annes Beach on Isla Morada) I would not go back.

    Perfect spot for dog

    I have been waiting for this park to open and it did not disappoint! Perfect area for dog to run around and swim. Dogs should be on leash, but were off leash by the water. They also have picnic tables, so bring your lunch or book and enjoy! We loved it!

    Great dog beach!

    Key Largo has needed a dog friendly beach! So glad they have turned this place in to a spot for our fur babies to enjoy the water!
