Dog Beach

About

Your dog gets to run free and swim in the ocean at Jupiter's 2.5-mile dog-friendly beach stretch. Well-behaved, off-leash dogs can play together in the waves and sand while you watch. The town provides waste bags at every beach access point, and parking is right there. This works for any age dog and any kid who wants to see their pup happy. Just bring fresh water, sunscreen for your dog's nose and ears, and rinse them off after since salt water can damage their coat. It's free, and locals come back weekly because their dogs absolutely love it.

The Town of Jupiter is a coastal community located in Palm Beach County, Florida. Incorporated in 1925, Jupiter celebrates its history, heritage, and community. The town aims to achieve a high quality of life by balancing its small-town feel with intel

  Dog Beach is Jupiter's amazing dog-friendly stretch of coastline where kids ages 4 and up can experience the joy of playing with dogs right on the sand and in the water. This 2.5-mile beach area (running from beach marker #26 to marker #57) is one of the few dog-friendly beaches left in Florida, and it's a special place where children can learn about responsible dog ownership and interact with well-socialized, obedient dogs in a natural setting. Kids will get to watch dogs play off-leash, splash in the ocean, and experience the unique bond between people and their furry friends in an open, beachy environment. The program operates as part of Jupiter's community beaches, so you can visit during beach hours, and costs vary depending on parking and any programs the town may offer. What makes this truly special is that it's been a protected dog-friendly space since 1989—it's a rare gem in Florida where your family can spend a whole afternoon watching dogs be dogs while your kids make memories at the beach.
