Are dogs are allowed on the beach.
Reveal/Hide Answer
Many people enjoy walking their dogs on the beach, but dog owners are reminded that between May and September dog walking on the following beaches in Porthcawl is prohibited: Rest Bay, Town Beach, Coney Beach and Trecco Bay.
Dogs are still permitted on Newton Beach, Sker Beach and Pink Bay throughout the year, but dog owners are reminded that if they do not clean up after their pet has fouled, they could face a £75 instant fine and if prosecuted, a possible maximum fine on £1,000.
Please note that guide, hearing and assistance dogs are permitted on all beaches throughout the year.
