Never again

Smyrna Dunes Park

So after reading reviews on google I decided to get to the beach early. I got there and went in immediately. I asked the gate attendant where the bathrooms are so I could change. I was alone with two dogs. She told me I had to be quick because the dogs were not allowed on the board walk. WTF. Anyway I thought whatever and was as fast as I could be with two excited dogs. (They smelled the water and knew they were going to the beach.) When I was done I grabbed my cart and went down the dog path. The sand was not packed down so I tied my dogs harnesses to it and had them pull it instead of me. It really did help a lot to do that. After a long walk (which is pretty typical of dog beaches) we got to the end to find four families and dogs at this (no joke) 4 foot by 8 foot stretch of sand. High tide completely covered the whole beach for about two hours. At low tide it was maybe 50 feet long and 10 feet from the mangroves to the water. I usually have my older dog who really does not like to swim on a 25 foot lead tied down at the water edge. Could not use it.

The worst part is we were there for five minutes and while I was setting up, my older dog thought he saw a ball and picked up a jellyfish. I submitted a picture to show what he saw. So for about an hour I was treating him for his sting. Thank God I brought a gallon of vinegar. He is fine by the way. He learned his lesson.
