About the dog park

  • Water play for dogs
  • Run by the Golden Gate National Recreation Area (National Park Service)

The bayfront at Crissy Field has voice-control zones where well-behaved dogs can run off leash, with Golden Gate Bridge views. From July 1 to May 15 the west end of the beach, from Torpedo Wharf to about 700 feet east of the old Coast Guard station, is leash-only to protect shorebirds.

Rules

The Golden Gate National Recreation Area lets dogs off leash only in its designated voice-control areas, and only if they come back when called and stay in sight. Everywhere else the leash can be no longer than six feet, and parking lots, paved roads and picnic areas are on-leash. From July 1 to May 15, the snowy plover areas on Ocean Beach (Stairwell 21 to Sloat Boulevard) and at the west end of Crissy Field are leash-only. Pick up after your dog right away. Professional walkers with four to six dogs need a permit, and six dogs is the limit. (National Park Service)

Rules and hours can change, and dog parks sometimes close for repairs. Check the signs at the gate.
