Greenhills Beach Dog Off-Leash Area

FreeOff-leash permitted

Widely described as Sydney's only ocean-facing off-leash dog beach, Greenhills sits north of Wanda Beach at Cronulla with a long stretch of sand and surf. Sutherland Shire Council designates it a dog off-leash area with time restrictions.

Why it made the list

The only true ocean surf beach in Sydney where dogs are legally allowed off-leash.

Good to know before you go

Sutherland Shire Council lists Greenhills Beach as a dog off-leash area with time restrictions; dogs are off-leash before 10am and after 4pm daily (outside daylight saving hours the afternoon start is 3pm). Dogs must be on-leash when entering and leaving the area and are prohibited near playgrounds and rock pools.
