There are several pet friendly areas to take your dog for a great walk here on the Gold Coast, with many off leash dog parks to choose from.

Palm Beach is one location that you should check out for exercising your dog. It\’s here in quiet Palm Beach on the southern end of the Gold Coast where dog heaven is. At this location you can take the whole family and enjoy many water sports and take your pet for a swim too.

Palm Beach offers many choices when it comes to exercising your dog off leash.

North Palm Beach

South Palm Beach

Eddy Kornhauser Recreational Park, Guineas Creek Road also has a off leash dog area

South Palm Beach- Palm Beach Parklands

South Palm Beach is where Palm Beach Parklands is located. This is a tremendous pet friendly Gold Coast off collar exercise area for your dog, although make sure you adhere to the Gold Coast Council signage and keep out of the areas not nominated to dog walking or you could end up with a hefty fine.

On the weekend the area is full of activity a virtual labyrinth of dogs and children on the move. Most of this activity takes place on the small strip of beach that faces the lagoon, this long strip of land is called Currumbin Spit (but it\’s in Palm Beach) The ocean side of Currumbin Spit is also an off leash exercise area. It\’s a great place to take the rest of the family, not only your dog.

While walking along this small stretch of beach you rarely hear a growl or see a skirmish, just yelps of excitement, although sure as night follows day there will be the occasional unruly dog.The chumminess amongst the disorder of many furry bodies all shapes and sizes, chasing balls and splashing in the water is awe-inspiring and amusing to watch.

If you weren\’t a dog owner you could be tempted to run out and buy one just to be part of the action.

This area is also used for other activities.

Wind Surfing

Stand up paddle

Personal trainer with their charges

Community group activities

Want a break?

If you can get some time to yourself and leave the rest of the family take one of the local walks. There are a number of options to choose from;

Walk the perimeter of Currumbin Spit around 1 kilometre, check out the wind surfers or board riders on the ocean side of Currumbin Spit, you can take your dog here and let him off leash.

No Dogs allowed at Tarrabora Reserve

If you decide to take a walk through Tarrabora Reserve you can\’t take your dog with you. This walk meanders along Currumbin Estuary and eventually ends up at Beree Badalla Boardwalk about 2 kilometres round trip. This boardwalk snakes through dense mangroves, here you are likely to see an abundance of birdlife, understandable your dog can’t come with you.

On the way back grab a coffee at the Dune Cafe and lunch for those still on the beach, they probably didn\’t even know you had gone.

North Palm Beach Dog Exercise Area

North Palm Beach dog exercise area is right on the beach next to the rock groyne (rock wall) under the shadow of beautiful Burleigh Headland National Park. The same scenario repeated here a hive of movement, dozens and dozens of Gold Coast dogs frolicking in the ocean. Chasing and retrieving balls, greeting each other like it\’s a weekly meet-fest on the beach. Dogs seem to know that parks and beaches are shared ground and a place to interact with their owners and their doggy friends.

It\’s fun time at Palm Beach dog exercise area.

If you prefer a quieter area visit during a week day there are far less people and dogs about and if your dog is a little boisterous or nervous this would be a good introduction to the area.
