Dog Friendly
English Riviera
In South Devon we like to extend a warm welcome to all our
visitors, including our four-legged guests. That is why you’ll find
plenty of dog-friendly places during your visit to the English Riviera.
We know that dogs enjoy playing in the sand as much as the
kids do, so beaches across the English Riviera are open to dogs
from 1st October to 30th April. During the summer months there
are plenty of beaches that allow dogs including Babbacombe
Beach, Livermead Beach in Torquay, Goodrington Sands North
in Paignton, Fishcombe Cove in Brixham, as well as other sandy
destinations around the Bay. Look out for our two ‘Dog Friendly’
icons in this directory’s beach listings to help you decide where to
visit – you’ll be spoilt for choice!
We are a dog-loving part of the world so you won’t have any
difficulty getting around the English Riviera. We recommend
checking ahead, but most means of transport, including ferries and
boat trips, will welcome well-behaved dogs on a lead. Similarly,
many cafés and restaurants are dog-friendly and a lot have outside
areas for you and your dog to sit and watch the world go by.
Cockington Country Park is an enjoyable walk from Torquay
seafront, and is a popular location for dog walking and a play
space for the whole family to enjoy. The Parks, Gardens, Woodland
and Nature section of this directory includes lots more dog-friendly
open spaces for you to explore with canine companions.
