   #1 Eastern Wells

   Eastern Wells is a neighborhood wholly taken up by the coast. Along the coast are plenty of dog-friendly beaches, like Drake's and Well's beach, but if you are looking for a non-beach walk, head over to Rachel Carson National Wildlife Refuge in the northern tip of the neighborhood. The refuge is open to all leashed pups and offers over 3 miles of nature trails with scenic views of the ocean and surrounding marshland. If you travel south into the neighborhood, you'll find Rollover Cafe, a casual bakery and cafe that offers dog-friendly seating and natural-made dog treats for Fido, as well as some delicious sweets for you.
