My dog unfortunately did not like this beach. It had a lot of seaweed on it and different dead creatures. It was also very small. I don’t recommend going to this beach.

Had so much fun with our pups here on a recent trip to Portland! Plenty of friendly pups for both of our girls to play with!

Been here twice. everyone has been very friendly and responsible of their dogs.

I agree with the last comment. I've noticed recently that many local owners aren't keeping a close eye on their dogs here. Last weekend I witnessed just this - a woman's poodle wouldn't leave a Spaniel alone (at least 20 yards from said woman) & they started to fight a bit. The woman (pictured below - twice, I wanted to make sure I called out it was a small spaniel) literally kicked the spaniel twice and was screaming about it being a safe way to break up a fight (that her dog started BTW). It's not - it's actually animal abuse. Needless to say - I won't be going back to this beach.

Overall a great beach, however be aware that locals will often let their dogs run very free on this beach (like 20+ yard away from them free and not pay close attention to what their doing free). If your dog has any trouble at all with other dogs getting in their face, this might not be the best beach (or they should stay leashed while there).

Most dog friendly beach I've been to! Everybody and all dogs super friendly.

Portland Maine is a mecca for people who travel with their dogs, and when visiting recently we began each day at this beach. We met dozens of dogs and were able to play with many of them. Off leash, splashing in the water, chasing balls, getting all sandy. A terrific way to start the day--if we lived here, we'd go every day. It seemed as though the locals feel the same way about it.
Oh, there were no garbage cans to toss yer poop bags, FYI.

Was perfect! The beach was quiet and loved playing. In the water and sand!
- Pamela MMore than a year agoWonderful!
We brought our dog here for a morning romp and it was fantastic! Lots of dogs- most off leash, some on leashes- and the other dog owners there were very nice! Our dog played at the shoreline and chased her ball. The other dogs were friendly and well-behaved! We had so much fun! Pretty beach too!
