The park also has a fenced enclosure for dogs to get a chance for some off-leash freedom. This dog park is built around mature trees so there’s plenty of shade to be found. The park has a surface of grass, dirt, and wood. It is open from sunrise to sunset. Don’t forget to clean up. Water is available in the playground area of the park.

There is plenty of shade near the dog park. Also close by are beach areas for dogs to walk on leash. The historic Fort Hale Park is also located nearby, where dogs on-leash can exercise on the beach.
