Dog Beach of Hollywood

In a big marked stretch of the beach in Fort Lauderdale, dogs are allowed off-leash. This dog park has dog bags, water, and beach showers. There's also a city officer on hand to assist with any issues and to police the rules at the beach. Although the beach is close to the road, the officer and dunes are both between the beach and the road, so parking is the only concern. Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays are the only days when the beach is open. Per dog, a one-weekend permit costs $7.

Near the south picnic area, Haulover Beach Park has a bark park with an enclosure for little dogs (less than 35 lbs.) and large dogs (more than 35 lbs.). If travelling southbound, enter the bark park through parking lot #3 on the west side of Collins Avenue; if travelling northbound, enter through parking lot #4 on the east side of Collins Avenue. Shade trees, picnic tables, and water fountains for dogs and their partners, as well as doggie waste bag dispensers and waste containers, are all available in the bark park. Only the specified beach area between lifeguard towers #2 and #3 is open everyday from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.Dogs and their owners are welcome on the section of the beach right across from the bark park, which is accessible via parking lots #3 and #4. Except in the authorised beach area, dogs must be kept on a leash at all times.

A peaceful seaside park with a dog run, playground, picnic tables, and grilling facilities.

In Miami-Dade County, Hobie Island Beach Park is a dog-friendly beach. This dog-friendly beach was created by humans. Your dog is welcome to run around in the sand and jump into the ocean, but keep an eye out for the windsurfers slaloming in the water. There are plenty of parking spots nearby, as well as areas to relax in the shade while your dog runs around. From sunrise until sunset, the beach is open to the public.

One of Florida's nicest off-leash beaches is located in Jupiter Beach. Dogs are allowed to explore a specific portion of the beach near Ocean Cay Park, which runs along A1A. Free parking is available in the lot at the intersection of Ocean Blvd and Marcinski Rd, as well as along A1A. Friends of Jupiter Beach (FJB) promotes beach bylaws and ongoing beach cleanup initiatives in order to maintain the beach clean and dog-friendly. In lifeguard zones and Town of Jupiter parks, dogs are not permitted (Carlin Park).
