Quick Guide to the beaches around the coast of Cornwall |
| Back to Main Index |
| Many beaches have dog bans throughout the tourist season. This guide will help identify those beaches where dogs are or are not allowed. This guide was originally based on information published by the six Cornish local authorities in March 2004. Caradon and Kerrier districts have been updated in March 2005. Some dog bans may have been introduced since the original information was provided.
