Most dogs adore a splash in the sea, but with many councils imposing dog bans it's not always easy to find a beach for your dog to get his annual beach holiday.

Look in the DwD Beaches section to find the most up-to-date guide on beaches where dogs are allowed in the summer months.

There are dog friendly beaches all around the UK coast, and all have been visited by DwD members to give lots of detail about where to park, if there's a dog-friendly cafe there, and handy tips on walkies off the beach if your dog has sensitive paws and doesn't like too much sand.
