Carmel Beach is a favorite for dog owners of the area, and the beach itself is actually one of the safer beaches in the Monterey Bay area. The beach area is approximately two miles in length. Plenty of room for your puppy to frolic in the waves or play catch.

Keep in mind, that the walkway on the bluffs above that is used to approach the beach, is Dog on leash only. Once down on the beach, they can go off leash.
