CALIFORNIA
Northern California is more friendly than Southern California. As the waters warm up heading south, the beaches become more restrictive. By the time you reach Los Angeles, don’t expect to find any place to get your dog onto the sand. Beaches in the state can close to dogs with little warning due to nesting sites set up by the snowy plover, a small shorebird that is listed as a threatened species. Beaches listed from north to south.
Recommended Tail-Friendly Beaches
Crescent Beach. Dogs aren’t allowed to poke around Red- woods National Park too much but they are allowed on this wide semi-circle of sand. The waves in the broad cove usually lap softly onto the shore but this was the site of a tsunami that wrecked Crescent City in 1964. A century earlier, the side-wheelerBrother Jonathan struck a submerged rock spire known as the “Dragon’s Teeth.” Lifeboats were deployed but only one made it to shore with 19 survivors. The loss of 215 lives remains the worst maritime disaster in California history.
Mendocino. The bluffs around the Northern California town are the main attraction but your dog will favor the state park beaches in the area instead.
Point Reyes. You just can’t hit the beach with your dog at the national seashore - there are restrictions for that snowy plover at certain times and elephant seal mating at other times and other beach restrictions but there is also plenty of open sand and interesting terrain around the peninsula for your dog.
Golden Gate National Recreation Area. In 1972 a menagerie of government properties around the San Francisco Bay that included forts, a prison, an airfield, beaches and forests were knitted into one of the world’s largest urban national parks. Much of it is open to your dog. Start on Fort Funston on the Pacific Ocean and work your way around the bay. The north end of Stinson Beach in Marin County is a dog beach.
Carmel-by-the-Sea. You will never find a more dog-friendly beach than Carmel Beach where dogs and people mingle freely on soft white sand. This is the biggest beach among the craggy headlands of Monterey Peninsula. Dogs are also welcome on Carmel River State Beach at the east end of town.
Pfeiffer Beach. The Big Sur coastline south of the Monterey Peninsula is a must-see for any traveler. A string of state parks provides the best access to seascapes that Rovert Louis Stevenson described famously as “the greatest meeting of land and sea in the world.” Your dog, sadly, will not be able to confirm that since the Big Sur state parks ban dogs for the most part. But Big Sur is not a complete washout for dog lovers, however. A short, sandy trail leads to Pfeiffer Beach, one of the most beautiful public beaches in California. The sand is wrapped in spectacular rock formations making this a very secluded beach indeed. The rocks are sprinkled in the surf as well, forming coves and making for exciting play in the waves for dogs. The turn-off from Highway 1 is obscured and easy to miss on the crest of a hill so be diligent when seeking out Pfeiffer Beach.
Pismo Beach. A good, hassle-free beach to bring your dog on the Central Coast. When you see trucks lining up to drive on the beach, you can assume no one is going to much mind about your dog. Convenient parking in town as well.
San Simeon. William Randolph Hearst’s beach at the foot of his castle is not dramatic or expansive by California standards but your dog won’t be critical. Just pull off Highway 1, walk down some wooden steps and you are on the beach in about one minute. The beach in front of the short, grassy bluffs is a mix of stones and rocks and a strip of sand.
San Diego’s Dog Beach (North Beach). With 38 acres at the north end of Ocean Beach, Dog Beach is the second largest leash-free beach for dogs in America. City officials estimate that as many as 10,000 dogs visit each week.

OREGON
All of Oregon’sbeaches are public. You can step on every grain of Oregon sand for 400 miles and, in the rare exception of a ban due to nesting birds, your dog can be with you all the way. The beaches are listed from north to south.
Recommended Tail-Friendly Beaches
Cannon Beach. Withs its views of the sea, the mountains and rugged coastal outcroppings, this is one of Oregon’s most celebrated beaches. Haystack Rock looms out in the surf. Come in October for the Dog Show on the Beach.
Gold Beach. The beach where the Rogue River reaches the Pacific ocean is noted for its clean sands. Your dog can help with the beachcombing in the state recreation area.
Oregon Dunes National Recreation Area. These wind-sculpted dunes are the largest expanse of coastal sand dunes in North America. As long as the birds aren’t nesting, your dog is allowed anywhere on the sand.

WASHINGTON
Dogs on leash are allowed in all Washington state parks but not in many swimming areas around Puget Sound. The uncrowded Pacific Coast beaches are some of the dog-friendliest in America - even Olympic National Park, which bans dogs from almost all of its 632,324 acres, opens some of its remote coastal beaches to dogs.
Recommended Tail-Friendly Beaches
Long Beach Peninsula. Miles of wide open sand on the Pacific Ocean and county officials who promise not to enforce leash laws on the beach providing your dog is well-behaved. Now that is a deal all dog owners can live with!
North Beach Point. On the Olympic Peninsula here you get acccess to the shoreline of Juan de Fuca Strait and Fort Worden State Park. Great for boat watching, beach combing, dog walking and sunsets.
Warren G. Magnuson Park (Sand Point). Seattle’s second-largest park at 350 acres features a mile-long shoreline on Lake Washington. It is freshwater but it is also the only dog beach in Seattle. Plenty of convenient parking in this former Navy facility.
