Island Beach State Park

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.
