A small harbour beach at Clontarf where dogs can play off-leash on the sand above the high water mark.
Sandy Bay is a pocket of harbour sand at the end of Sandy Bay Road, Clontarf. It is one of the few places on the Beaches where your dog can get sand between its toes on the harbour side.
The off-leash area sits above the mean high water mark, so pick a lower tide for more room. It is a residential street, so keep the barking down.
Parking is tight. Use Clontarf Reserve and walk around. It is a short stroll and a nice warm-up for the dog before the main event.
