   While visiting Solana Beach with your pup, check out the Fiesta Island Off-Leash Dog Park. This park is located around 20 miles away from Solana Beach, and is situated in Mission Bay. Most of the island allows dogs to play and run off-leash; however, there are certain areas where a leash is a must. There is a lot of space where your pup can tire himself out and splash in the shallow beach water. This huge park is fenced in, and has more than enough room for timid or shy pups to play on their own. Don't forget to bring your own water and poop bags!

   Just 2 miles away from Solana Beach is a very beautiful beach that allows dogs off-leash 9 months of the year, during the off-season. The beach is very clean and provides easy access to parking. You'll need to bring your own waste baggies; cleaning up after your pooch is a must here! Bring your own water, too, since there isn’t any here. There are no bathrooms either, just some port-a-potties. The water is pretty gentle, and the beach is very clean and safe for your pup, making it the perfect place for playing some fetch in the water!

This off-leash park is completely fenced in and open 24/7, so you can get in your exercise anytime! The park has more than enough space to romp and play. There are some trees here that provide shade, as well as benches for the human visitors. Water and waste bags are usually provided in the park, but it's always a good idea to bring your own just in case.
