  • Located in the beautiful Prospect Park in Brooklyn
  • There are huge areas for your pup to run and play!
  • Dogs can be off-leash in the early mornings and late evenings
  • The beach area is accessible via the 9th Street entrance
  • Use caution – the water at the Dog Beach gets deep quickly!

2. Gerritsen Avenue Beach

3078 Gerritsen Ave.
Brooklyn, NY 11229

Today was such a good day! ???? #dogsofinstagram #satodog #beach #dog #sand #sunset #walkies

  • Special little bay area that humans and dogs adore!
  • The beach gets crowded on weekends, so be prepared
  • It’s best to take your dogs past the main entrance – that’s where the families and children are usually hanging out

3. Brooklyn Bridge Park

Pier 4 Beach
Brooklyn, NY 11201

  • To get to the water, you’re going to want to head to Pier 4 Beach
  • People don’t swim in this spot, but it’s great for dogs who want to cool off
  • Great, central location for city dogs

4. New York City Beaches

  • Dogs aren’t allowed on many beaches, but there are a few they can visit!
  • Leashed dogs are allowed at Wolfe’s Pond Beach (420 Cornelia Ave. Staten Island, NY 1031), Cedar Grove Beach (170-178 Cedar Grove Ave. New Dorp Beach, NY 10306), Coney Island Beach (37 Riegelmann Boardwalk Brooklyn, NY 11224) and others.
  • Visit the NYC Parks website to get specifics about each beach and the rules!
  • Beautiful, sandy beach just perfect for your pup’s paws

Want to make sure your dog is getting enough exercise while you’re exploring Brooklyn? Not to worry – hire a local dog walker who would love to take them under their wing as you both have a blast in New York.
