Dogs on Pearl Beach

Your pets are welcome to holiday in our part of paradise. Obeying the Council posted signs for the exercising of dogs is appreciated as is the collection of your pets droppings for disposal in the Council provided orange-lidded bins located at the northern Coral Crescent beach entrance/exit, the Agate Avenue beach entrance/exit and at the Amenities pavilion at Pearl Parade opposite Amethyst Avenue.
These small considerations will ensure everyone enjoys the beauty of Pearl Beach.

Central Coast Council Rangers randomly patrol the beach and heavy fines ($228.00) may be issued for failure to comply with the posted dog exercising ordinance signs.

As a result of the COVID19 restrictions, more and more people are exercising themselves accompanied by their dogs on the beach.

Central Coast Council's uniformed and plain-clothes Rangers will until further notice, be patrolling Pearl Beach seven days a week.


It is recommened that visitors and residents alike should heed the posted dog exercising ordinance signs that are posted at all beach entrance points.
