U will get wet! Lots of wet doggies having fun! A towel or two w/water to drink & use for feet when the beach-time is over is a great idea.

So busy but great for the dogs. Don't bring your kids if you're afraid that a strange dog is going to come up to them.

Wow paid for half hour parking... $1.50 charge .... put in $2. The machine says it doesn't give change back. How convenient! The City of Del Mar, making an extra few off the people.

Great place to let doggies run off leash. Parking can be bit of a problem sometimes. Wide open space and clean. Finn and Indy enjoyed it very much. 5/15/22.

We love this dog beach! Good weekday dog beach. Weekends are busy. Nice, small, and parking all around.

Awesome dog beach. Dogs are very friendly and well looked after by their owners. Highly recommended!

Nice beach but watch out for the currents and the big dogs with a-hole oblivious owners.

Great spot for beach volleyball, great place for dog surfing, and they have an annual bocce ball tournament!

From Labor Day through June 14, your four-legged friend can run off-leash and splash in the Pacific. The rest of the year, Fido must be on a leash.

If you don't have a dog but want to pet a bunch of them and watch them play in the ocean this is the place to come.

For locals only: Go to the South side of the river mouth at low tide. Fewer tourists and much more beach. Plus you don't have to pay for parking (if you can find it).

Paid parking on the north side, free parking on the south side... if you can find a spot and not get hit while crossing the street.
