Whether you live in Delaware or are planning a summer visit, it’s paramount to find the best beaches where you can spend the day with your best friend!
Not all beaches allow dogs, though, so it’s important to do your homework before you bring your pup to any beach; hefty fines can occur if you break the rules.

Final Thoughts
Before you bring your dog to any beaches, always check the guidelines. Most of the beaches in Delaware have rules about canines. There are usually only certain times of the day or specific months that dogs are allowed on many beaches, and it’s always a good idea to look up this information before you make the trip.
Remember, when you do have a day at the beach with your dog, always clean up after them. Ensure that you bring enough supplies too—water is crucial for both you and your pup.
Kathryn was a librarian in a previous lifetime and is currently a writer about all things pets. When she was a kid, she hoped to work in a zoo or with wildlife in some way, thanks to her love for animals. Unfortunately, she's not strong in the sciences, so she fills her days with researching and writing about all kinds of animals and spends time playing with her adorable but terribly naughty tabby cat, Bella. Kathryn is hoping to add to her family in the near future – maybe another cat or two and a dog.
