Dog friendly beaches

Nephythys · 07-08-2008, 06:05 AM

Hi-

My parents are taking a trip to California- they are taking my daughter (I am so gonna miss her!) and their dog- Bandit. The primary cause of the trip is to visit my grandfather- who lives in Venice.

Mom is not sure about taking the dog to the beach- they would like to stop and let Rose play but are there dog friendly beaches in their area?

Trying to recall the area they said they would be in- Venice, Santa Monica, Marina Del Ray?

*sigh*

Anyway- anyone know of areas where they can take the dog?

I know there are good ones in Long Beach, and Huntington Beach, but I don't know of any dog beaches near the area your parents are visiting. Here's a link that shows many dog parks in the area your parents will be.

Long Beach and Malibu are it for LA County. I've never been to the Malibu beach but I've spent LOTS of time at the Long Beach Beach. It's a great dog beach, but due to the breakwater, there aren't any waves. Huntington has a nice dog beach and there is no breakwater there, so good waves.

Does Thurston surf?

Not yet - or at least not in the water. He does like to table surf though.
