    So….are the dogs allowed to swim if they are on an 8′ leash and not in a designated swimming beach?

  3. CG Says:

    Leashed dogs are allowed on the beach. Pets are not permitted on designated swimming beaches. However, there is usually a non-designated swimming beach area as well. Dogs are also allowed at the campgrounds. They must be on a eight foot or less leash at all times and people are required to clean up after their pets.
