Before taking a swipe, it's best to get informed

Here are the rules in force on our beaches where dogs are allowed:

  1. A leash is a must! Your dog must be kept on a lead at all times, every day. Yes, even if Fido thinks he can run faster than the wind. No total freedom, to preserve everyone’s peace and quiet.
  2. Restricted areas: look out for the signs! You’ll see orange and black signs demarcating areas where dogs are tolerated. Think of the white side of the sign as “no sniffing zones” for your four-legged friend.

Walking spots on the Atlantic Ocean:

  • Northern end of Remember Beach: Perfect for dogs who love panoramic ocean views.
  • South end of South Beach: Ideal for dogs who prefer sunsets and taking a selfie near the shipwreck.

Good to know : You know the 5-second rule? It’s a good way to tell if a surface is too hot for your dog’s paw pads. Press your bare foot firmly against the sand and try to hold it in place for 5 seconds.
