Small beach suitable only for voice controlled dogs. Lots of pedestrian and bicycle traffic on adjacent paths. Sheltered. Apparently good water quality. Toilets nearby. Best at low tide. The coffee shop in the big Life Saving building, a short on-lead walk west, sells doggie icecream in dixie cups. A treat not to be missed.

We love it here! All dogs are well behaved the beach is clean. Only complaint would be the Shelly sand 🐚

Dog beach is nice - can get very busy in the Spring/Summer (and quite over-crowded), making it difficult for dogs to have a good run. Views of the port aren't particularly attractive and not one of Melbourne's best beaches, but worth a visit nonetheless.

Amazing scenery and views from the deck. Great for a late evening walk.

Toby and Rex will most certainly give this place a five star sniff

Beach is so spacious and clean. A great sandy beach for letting your dog off leash plenty of bins for disposing dogs business. Community is very open and friendly.

Dogs are allowed off-leash on the beach between the rock groyne opposite Cumberland Road (2nd groyne from Sandridge Beach) and the rock groyne opposite Barak Road (3rd groyne from Sandridge Beach) at all times of the year. This is a distance of about 220m. For the remainder of the beach the regulations are: 1 April - 31 October: Dogs permitted at all times on the beach 1 November - 31 March: Dogs prohibited at all times on the beach Copied and pasted from Melbourne Playgrounds website.

I enjoy coming to Port Melbourne from time to time! It gives me a chance to unwind and connect with nature. 🌹🥀🌺

Quiet. Free parking so far as I can tell anyway. Beautiful.

Barbeque and plenty of parking.. Fresh water on tap to drink.. Nice place to picnic

The dog loves it. Very quiet mid week

Excellent place to take the pooch, go when the tide is low and the beach is huge and there is so much room for them to play and have a blast !! Don’t forgot the ball !

It was a nice beach but I would prefer one where the water isn’t as deep straight away. My dogs love to run through the shallow water but there they had to swim straight away.

Great small beach, good facilitys, good parking

Too bad it's not big enough to truly exercise your dog.

My dog loves it.

Loved it! Good running tracks. You can give it a shot if you want to try a peaceful.

Lovely beach but you must like dogs. I do. Great place for a walk though plus the views.

Good dog beach.

A bit artificial. Even dog wasn't too impressed.

Quiet sheltered beach, with good views of the port and shipping.

Nice quiet spot away from the crowds. Park your car here and ride, walk, scoot as far as you can.

Coco always goes nuts as soon as she hits the sand, she loves it, never too busy.

Obviously, check the water quality before you dip your pooch in the bay, though this applies throughout.

A beautiful spot really near to the city. If you are lucky you will be able to see the spirit of Tasmania docking near by.

Nice little beach.

Great place to visit, especially in the mornings when it's quieter

Only allowed between two streets - Cumberland and Barak - yet all the signs All along the beach say they must be leashed at all times. It’s very confusing and see a lot of owners ignoring it altogether- such as at sandridge which is legally off limits yet there NO signage there whatsoever. No water areas for dogs clearly marked. The water is lovely and yet full of seaweed, in case your dog gets snooty like mine does. It is nice and quiet at 1pm on a weekday.

Great for dogs to play

Water was not clean and there were many small stinging jelly fish. The beach itself is quite large, lots of space for lying around. Never too busy.

Relaxing, clean and good car parking space

I saw people with there pet dogs both looks happy 😁😁😁

Great spot for the dog to play with toilet and kiosk facilities nearby

Great spot to take the dog out for a walk. Nice and quiet with great facilities.

Great sand, big beach

My dog loves this place

Nice beach with a good view of the shipping yards.

Nice and clean dog beach. My pup loved it here. Will be back

Beautiful, safe, fun

Wonderful place to sit, walk and sing near quiet beach... Parking usually available and peaceful place to sit in car and drink coffee...

Great dog beach. Can't go during most of the day in summer, but mornings are nicer anyway
