Davis Dog Beach
Dog park
👍👍 We love the DI dog beach! Our labradoodle loves to swim, and she is always swimming and catching tennis balls in the water. The beach is big enough that we can move off to the side away from the other dogs and she can feel comfortable (she’s scared of playing with other dogs!).

If you love soaking up the sun, you'll love this place because there is no shade during the day. However, I find it the perfect place to ch...
