Bayview Dog Beach

The 4 star is only for the park with the water… it is awesome… all fenced with sandy beach… very very nice. There is another larger fenced park with no water is it DISGUSTINGLY dirty! Dog owners would rather sit around talking instead of paying attention dog messes everywhere… so bad our dog wanted out! This park is rated ½ star. These are the humans that ruin it for us who clean up after our pets.

Such a fun place for our dogs while we were on vacation. We will for sure come back. Beach was very clean and so nice to see a dog wash off area.

Great place to take my lab mix to get out her wiggles. She loved running along the water and playing with the other dogs that were there. When we got there it wasn’t super busy (maybe 5 dogs total) but many more had arrived as we were leaving and we saw even more that had just arrived in the parking lot. Lots of room to run even if your dog doesn’t want to get in the water, and a second dog park is across the parking lot if you wanted a non-​beach option.
The only negative is that children under 16 are not allowed. I understand this rules as a safely measure but most dog parks allow children under 16 if with a parent. The sign on this park clearly states they are not allowed and that the park is just for the dogs/​owners. Having said that, there were several younger children in the park so perhaps not all parents saw the two signs that state this at the entrance, or they choose to ignore it. I had my kids sit at the picnic bench just on the other side of the fence where I could still see them and they could watch the dogs safely and without breaking the rules. We didn’t know that was the rule before we drove there otherwise we wouldn’t have gone as a family.

Super cute and safe place for your dogs to play and swim. Hose off area is nice and covered seating for the owners to relax.

My daughter sent beautiful photos of her happy dogs running on this fantastic beach in Florida! Yaaah!

Love this dog beach. I give it 4 stars because sometimes the dog owners aren’t as mindful of their dogs as they should be. Guess that’s not the parks fault… Anyway, be watchful of your dog and know how to break up a dog fight if you need to.
Since we had the flood back in April and the park closed for awhile for repairs, the water has been a lot cleaner for some reason. Which is a plus. But really, my dog and I love this beach, we drive all the way across town just for this dog beach.

My dog, Mason, has grown up in the dog park and will be turning a year old soon. He loves the dog beach and we try to go at least every Sunday. As for kids, there is a sign on the gate and I believe that the rule is no kids under 16 without supervision. The dog beach is awesome and the only place like it in the area. I wish we could set up a couple more around the area. Unfortunately, the dog beach was destroyed in the flooding and is closed. I wonder if a few of the regulars would want to get together to talk to the administrators about when they plan on having it repaired and what we can do to help!

Nice little dog park by the water. Great spot to take your furry little friends during the hot Florida summer days.

Moved here to Pensacola from San Diego and was looking for a good dog park out here and came across this one. This dog beach is the best! Lots of room to run and jump and play in the water. They have 2 covered areas to sit and watch your canine play. Please only bring your dog if they get along with other dogs. I hate seeing animals fight and get hurt. They have a shower station to rinse off your pooch after a fun day in the water. Also doggy poop stations with baggies to pick up after your dog. Across the parking lot is also a dog park for big and small dogs. Love this place and so does my black lab.
