Dog Beach Facts:

 

Length Feet:  6860 ft

Length Miles: 1.29 miles

Average width of beach is 225 ft

The three metered parking lots and metered street parking are 25 cents for ten minutes.  There are a total of 234 parking spaces in the three bluff lots.  There are 54 spaces in the northern two lots and 180 in the southern lot.  Dog bag dispensers are located in the parking lots, access walks, and beach kiosks.


Nice Free Parking Area:  Many regulars that go to dog beach park their cars on Seapoint Avenue just before Harriett Weider Park.  There is free street parking here for about twenty cars.  Great if you are going to be at the beach awhile or don't have quarters.  Just do a U-turn at the end of Seapoint if you are turning in from the beach.  Dog people like it since there is a open space field with dog bags that is next to the parking.  Surfers like these spaces since it is free and there are trash cans next to the parking area.  People can let their dogs do their business in the field before hitting the beach.   It is a easy walk down to the beach and there is a nice cross walk and beach ramp at PCH.  This free parking area fills up fast in summer.  Best if you have a small car since lots of the open spaces between cars can be small.


Dog Friendly Dining:  Try the Park Bench on Goldenwest.  Minutes from dog beach.  Great place to hit after a morning run with your dog on the beach.  However, can be packed on weekends, but you can walk the dog or read the paper while waiting.  They only serve breakfast and lunch and are closed Monday, Tuesday or if raining. 


Update:  There is now a new bathroom and drinking fountains(dog and people) at access point two.  These were put in over the last three summers.  We are still hoping for salt tolerant California native plant landscaping if the city will replace the old non-native dead plants alone the parking lot areas. It would be a win-win in this highly seen area.
