One of the main draws of Southern California is the beaches. I’ve enjoyed my fair share of them as a beach volleyball player and cyclist. Now, as a dog owner, I want to run on the beach with my dog, but that isn’t as easy. If you live here, you understand; and if you happen to be visiting the area with your pup, you’re in luck because I have spent a lot of my time uncovering Southern California’s best dog beaches.
Dog Beach, Huntington Beach
Find 1.5 miles of beach to let your pooch run to their heart’s content. Dogs can enjoy the beach off leash and meet canine buds.
Dog Beach in Huntington Beach also makes for a great place to catch the sunset.
Rosie’s Dog Beach, Long Beach
Rosie’s Dog Beach in Long Beach offers a small, reserved area for canines to savor the sun and sand.

Arroyo Burro Beach Park, Santa Barbara
Now this is one I haven’t visited with my pup yet, but I have been there. I didn’t have a dog yet when I first visited, but this beach also offers some great grub. If you make your way out here, I recommend you plan it around brunch and visit Boathouse at Hendry’s Beach.
These are the three I am familiar with, and rest assured, I’ll share more as I discover these gems. Are there any dog beaches you visit with your pup?
Our family loves a good beach!
