Longport Dog Beach

Members have access to the dog park via key fobs that grant admission. A family membership includes two dogs. A yearly fee for additional dogs is charged. Every dog must have a current rabies vaccination certificate.

Pets are welcome at the Wildwood Dog Park and Beach. This dog-friendly beach, formerly known as Poplar Avenue Beach, is a great place to play in the sand and waves. To get to the beach, owners can stroll their dogs under the Maple Avenue boardwalk. There's plenty of room for you and your dog to sunbathe and swim in the pool. On the beach, dogs must be leashed, however the adjoining dog park is leash-free. The only place to get fresh water is inside the park, not on the beach. The beach has no set hours of operation, however the city suggests swimming while a lifeguard is on duty.

Within a 60-acre woodland park, there is a 9-acre enclosed dog park for off-leash strolling. On the many paths in the region, dogs must be on a leash. They can swim on a tiny lake nearby. There are playgrounds, restrooms, picnic tables, and chairs located throughout the park. There are also paved trails.

Dogs are allowed in the park, but they must be kept on a leash that is no longer than six feet long. During the summer season, they are not permitted on the swimming beach (lifeguard area) or on the Spizzle Creek Bird Blind Trail at any time. After going on any of the other paths, it's a good idea to check your dog for ticks. During hot weather, never leave your dog, or any other creature, alone in the car.

On the Manasquan Inlet, Fisherman's Cove Conservation Area is the last undeveloped land. Fishing, walking on the beach, and sunbathing are all popular activities on the 55-acre estate. Dogs are welcome on the beach's eastern half, but they must be kept on a leash at all times to protect the fragile coastal ecosystem. The beach's western half has been marked as "dog free."

Pets are welcome at 8th Avenue Dog Beach. Plan an off-leash frolic at Asbury Park's 8th Avenue Dog Beach if your dog was born to run. Jump in the water with your dog for a nice swim after a game of fetch or Frisbee. Between mid-September and mid-May, dogs are always welcome on the beach. If you visit during the summer, go early in the morning or late in the evening, as dogs are not allowed between 8:30 a.m. and 6:00 p.m.
