Visiting with Dogs

​
It's important to remember that dogs are required to be on leash in town, on trails, and on most beaches. We ask that you also clean up after your dog, and there are many doggie bags around town. It is especially important to pick up after your pooch on the beach, as the bacteria harms the marine life.
