Fun beach day

Jun 2020 • Family

We spent two wonderful days by Coronado beach with our kid and dog. It was fun to let her run off leash and play with other dogs. We built castles and played toys. Parking is usually easy just be patient.
On the second day my son did get stung by a stingray and was in a world of hurt. However it is common and happens to the best of them. Just be safe and watch your loved ones.

Great for woofer freedom.

Feb 2020

A quality beach experience for dogs and humans and one of the very few places you can let your woofer off leash in Coronado. There is plenty of parking even if a short walk from the neighborhood area adjacent to the park. Coronado is very serious about dogs on leash and picking up after your pet, so this beach is freedom from the leash law. If it is your first visit with your dog to saltwater, know that many dogs will get sick shortly after romping in the surf from ingesting the water, and it often happens in the car on the way home. Although often crowded on weekends, everyone seems to get along well ... dogs and their owners.

decent off-leash area for dogs

Jan 2020 • Solo

although somewhat crowded on the day i visited, my dog and i had a good time. folks were attentive to their dogs, and this area of the beach appeared to be well maintained. there were water fountains and restrooms nearby. and, even though it was mid-morning on a Saturday, i found parking just a few blocks away.

Shangri-La For Dogs

Mar 2020

The northern part of the beach offers an area for pooches to run, chase each other, get wet and enjoy a state of bliss.

There's something about seeing dogs in/around the water as they enjoy the elements. Even if not a dog owner, worth the trip to visit to enjoy some four-legged friends enjoying the outdoors

Great fun for dogs and people too

Feb 2016 • Couples

The water was warm and inviting, the dogs enjoyed frolicking in the waves, but do be careful of your small dogs - I had to swim out a considerable way to retrieve my pomeranian who was carried backwards on a wave. The beach is clean, well-maintained and as with any dog-centric adventure, the people are friendly and pleasant. A perfect day for you and your furry family.

Absolutely loved this beach!

Jul 2015 • Solo

I took my dog here for her first visit to the beach. She had a blast! The beach was clean. No poop in sight. The dogs were friendly and the owners were responsible. The waves were not too big, which was important to me because my dog is only 8 pounds. Although she didn't like going in the water, she absolutely loved running on the sand. Parking can be hard to find and it is a bit of a treck to get from the street to the dog beach. There are no restrooms at the dog beach, but the nearby beach had restrooms. When we left the beach there was an area to hose her off. The only thing I didn't like was that she got fleas from the sand.

Dogs on the loose!

Feb 2021

So many happy fur-balls, all running, chasing balls, braving the cold water, and (surprisingly) all getting along really well! This expanse of beach is located between the military fencing and signage and the end of the Hotel Del Coronado. We could have stayed for hours just watching them cavort.

So much fun for our fur baby

Sep 2019

Best dog beach anywhere--big, safe and so much fun. You can have your dog off leash or on the leash depending on what you want. All the dogs were running and playing and having a wonderful time

Great dog beach

Sep 2019

When visiting San Diego we usually spend a day at Coronado beach. This a great beach that is wide and has nice soft sand. If you walk the beach you'll need to get closer to the water line where the sand is more packed down as well as if you are barefoot the sand can get very hot (near the water it is nice and cool). At the northern end of Coronado Beach is the excellent dog park. Since we live in Wisconsin we had to leave our dog at home but we totally enjoy visiting the dog beach area. Even if you don't have a dog, this is a fun place to visit.
