💡 Our Take

Looking for a Devon beach where your furry friend can roam free anytime? South Sands, near Salcombe, is your answer! This sandy haven welcomes dogs year-round, perfect for seaside zoomies. Parking can be tricky nearby, so arrive early. Though facilities are limited directly on the beach, Salcombe's amenities are a short distance away. Swim safety can vary with tides and weather, so keep a close watch on your dog. South Sands' gentle waves make it ideal for older or less experienced dogs. Remember: bring poo bags and water, especially on warm days. You'll both love it!
