Pillar Point Harbor

If you're looking for a new adventure for you and your best canine pal, a trip to Pillar Point Harbor might be it! This waterfront property is a protected harbor and is home to a valued commercial fishery. Hobby fishermen love to flock to this spot, as do families with pleasurecrafts seeking a place to dock their boats for the night. 

Though this property has commercial leanings, swimmers are still welcome to take the plunge into its crystal blue waters. But Pillar Point Harbor isn't just for people, pooches are welcome on the grounds too. To be sure to keep the California Paw Patrol at ease, you should keep Fido on his leash at all times. 

If you are a lover of excellent fish, you have come to the right place. There is nowhere else in California where you will find a fresher selection, and area restaurants close to the harbor cook up delectable meals with the local fish for you to enjoy. Be sure to pack a pawsome snack for your favorite furry friend as most restaurants do not offer food for dogs. While you're packing your bag for a day of beach fun, don't forget to include bottled water and clean up bags, two essential items to take on any trip. 

But fishing isn't the only pawsome thing to do at Pillar Point Harbor. This spot is pawrfect for all kinds of water sports, including kayaking and swimming. A number of marine species make this place their home. Don't forget to bring your camera, so you can catch some shots of seals and sea lions. If you are really lucky, you just might see a whale or two! You can even take your favorite canine pal for a stroll along the boardwalks and piers to get in a little exercise after a feed of fresh fish.Though there are boardwalks and there is water access at this harbor, there is not a sand beach area at this park. But the most pawsitively awesome news is Fido is welcome in all areas of Pillar Point Harbor, making this a truly dog-friendly beach location.

For a day of fun at a great California swimming spot, bring Fido and the family to visit Pillar Point Harbor. You'll have a doggone good time!
