Very nice dog Beach. You can keep walking south for miles to find beautiful desolate beaches and caves. Dogs are able to be off leash. Parking is limited though so you have to get lucky to find a spot if arriving after the morning. There is a cool look out spot at the top of the stairs. That's where I took my pictures. I would highly recommend this place.

Great place to let your dog run free and be a dog. Easy access to the beach . Bathroom, water fountain available. Parking is limited, but free

Great place! Very good for families with kids. There are bathrooms, beach showers. The park has picnic area, grills, place for games. Left side of the beach allows dogs. There is a self service dog wash. It has a beautiful overview (the stairs to it are behind the restaurant). The restaurant is pretty good with indoor and outdoor seating with good view. Free parking. During high season might be difficult to find a parking spot.

Dog heaven. My dog starts to cry as we pull into the parking lot because he’s so excited for this place! Have only experienced friendly people and wonderful dogs off leash.

Beautiful beach, we sat and saw dolphins going up and down. Great waves for body boarding, I tried body surfing lol Nearby parking and restaurant (awesome burger btw 🍔) plus a reasonable free public WC
