OFF-LEASH DOG BEACH. Dewey Beach Town Beach is one of the very few beaches on the eastern seaboard to permit dogs. From September 16th – May 14th dogs are allowed on the ocean beach anytime from 5:30 A.M.-1:00 A.M. daily. During the summer season dogs have unrestricted access from the Sunday following Labor Day Weekend, through the Friday of Memorial Day Weekend. Dogs are permitted on the bay beach during the summer season when lifeguards are not on duty. Dogs must be licensed in Dewey Beach. Dog licenses are available to be purchased at Dewey Beach Town Hall. The 3-day and 8-day license can be purchased at the kiosk at the corner of the Town Hall parking lot. The kiosk is available to use 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
