Visit the Best Pet-Friendly Beaches in NC

While many beaches only allow pets on the beach during specific times or seasons, the Town of Emerald Isle welcomes dogs on the beaches all year-round. The town does require that dogs stay on their leash and the owners pick up after them. Other than that, you and your four-legged friend are free to enjoy the beautiful shoreline! Many visitors spend a day at The Point, Emerald Isle’s most popular beach. However, you and your dog may prefer to get away from the crowds. The beaches on Coast Guard Road are ideal for that. Our selection of rental homes sit on the edge of this section, so the beaches are easily accessible from your Spinnaker’s Reach rental home.

Check out More Pet-Friendly Attractions

Explore the rest of Emerald Isle with your pet! Emerald Isle Woods Park allows dogs (as long as they are on a leash). This beautiful park is located along Coast Guard Road and features over 41 acres of gorgeous land. You’ll find walking trails, a disc golf course, and a floating dock over Bogue Sound. Whether you’re hiking with just your dog or you’re bringing the whole family along, you’re sure to have a great day at this park!
There are also some dog-friendly restaurants in Emerald Isle! The Village Market and Michaelangelo’s Pizza & Subs both allow dogs to join their owners on their outdoor patio.
