Dog Friendly Beaches

Beaches in North Wales to Enjoy

Dogs are welcome to the miles and miles of wonderful sandy beaches to be found on Anglesey and the Lleyn. There are 125 miles of coastline on Anglesey and 100 miles on the Lleyn Peninsula. They both have some amazing sandy beaches that seem to stretch forever. There are also small rocky coves that are waiting to be explored. Dogs are welcome to most beaches for most of the year but restrictions apply to parts of the major bathing beaches during the main summer months (May to September).
