User reviews
"I absolutely adore this dog beach! It's impeccably maintained and the people and dogs here are incredibly friendly. We've never encountered any problems during our visits. Additionally, there's ample parking available and a convenient pathway leading to the beach. The only minor suggestion I have is to have a shower facility for rinsing off my furry companion."
Evelyn Lee
"This is a fairly good dog beach with ample room for dogs to freely wander. It offers a lifeguard station and public restroom facilities. However, the water appears quite polluted with peculiar yellow foam washing ashore. Moreover, the people at this beach are not as welcoming as those at Rosie's dog beach, and they seem somewhat reluctant to allow dogs to socialize."
