South City Beach Dog Beach

FreeOff-leash permitted

A designated off-leash dog exercise beach south of the main City Beach swimming area, mapped by the Town of Cambridge. Calm shallow water, showers and taps at the entrance make it a favourite for first-time dog swimmers.

Why it made the list

Closest proper off-lead beach to Perth's western suburbs, with gentle shallows that suit nervous or small dogs.

Good to know before you go

Off lead only in the signed zone south of the access path (opposite Dartmouth Avenue southward to the Nedlands boundary); dogs must be on leash elsewhere and within 200 m of flagged areas. Hours were not published in the material reviewed.

Practical notes

  • Arrive early - weekend parking is tight
  • Rinse off at the beach showers before leaving

What is available on site

  • Off-leash area
  • Swim access
  • Water bowls
  • Step-free access

Policies change without notice anyway, so confirm the current one with the venue before you travel, and keep your dog leashed anywhere that is not a signed off-leash area. Read the full disclaimer.
