Dog-friendly beaches in Bude

The northern of Bude's two town beaches, backed by the old lifeguard buildings and a grassy hill. Dogs are excluded 10am to 6pm from 15 May to 30 September, the longer award-beach window. Northcott Mouth, twenty minutes up the coast path, is not on the council's list.

Bude's harbour beach, with the sea pool cut into the rocks at the far end and the canal lock behind. Unusually for Cornwall this is a leads beach rather than a banned one: between 21 May and 30 September, 10am to 6pm, dogs may be on the sand as long as they are on a lead and under close control. Outside that they can run.
