Your pet is welcome to join you on-leash at this beautiful beach known for its calm waters and turtle climb. Kayak rentals available nearby.
If it is 4:00 pm on any given weekday, this is when locals bring their dogs for some social time. If you’d like your dog to have some experience with other dogs, this is a great time to go! This is a walk with many wide open spaces, so it also lends itself well to throwing a ball for your dog. Bring the chuckit and have at it. The walk itself is easy and short, over very well-groomed dirt paths (though the beginning of the path is now gravel). It is mostly a loop with one off-shoot that brings you out to a cliff with great views of the sound. Leash Alert: There is no beach access--unless you are a dog. At the end of the off-shoot path, there is a very, very steep cliff down to the beach. Many dogs HAVE accessed this beach by heading down this precipitous cliff. It is a good idea to leash your dog before you get to the cliff area.
