October marks the beginning of a new policy that permits dogs on the beach throughout the day, provided they are leashed and their owners adhere to specific regulations. These include having proof of a valid rabies vaccination and ensuring all dog waste is properly disposed of.<\/p>\n

While dogs are welcome on the beach, they must remain on a leash no longer than eight feet at all times. Owners are also reminded that dogs are prohibited from entering the dunes.<\/p>\n

There is a provision for dogs to swim in the Atlantic Ocean without a leash, as long as they remain within the owner\u2019s voice and visual contact. However, they must be leashed immediately upon returning to the beach.<\/p>\n

Violations of these rules may result in a fine of $55, as stipulated by City Ordinance 5-41.<\/p>\n
