Asbury Park Dog Beach
Explore the Pet-Friendly 8th Avenue Dog Beach in Asbury Park New Jersey
Bring your pup along to explore the shore and stroll the Asbury Park Dog Beach. The 8th Avenue Dog Beach in Asbury Park is a designated dog-friendly beach, offering a haven for your canine companion to frolic in the sand and surf. From mid-September to mid-May, dogs are welcome to enjoy the beach all day long. During the summer season, plan your visit in the early morning or evening hours, as dogs are not permitted on the beach between 8:30 am and 6:00 pm. The Asbury Park Dog Beach is a great place for dogs to socialize, play fetch, and swim in the ocean. There are also plenty of amenities for dog owners, including a dog wash station, drinking fountains, and trash cans. Book your stay at the pet-friendly Berkeley Hotel and take delight in watching your pup play, socialize, and explore the coastal wonders while creating unforgettable memories together.
Nearby, we also recommend Bradley Park, directly across from the Berkeley Hotel, for free-frolicking year-round.
