Basic rules of coexistence and respect for the environment

• Before entering the sandy area of ​​the beach, it is advisable that you take your dog to the pee so he urinates less on the beach.
• Your pet must have a microchip and be dewormed. Always carry the updated vaccination record with you in case you need it. They will not be able to access the beach: dogs with ongoing infectious diseases, females in heat and puppies until they have all their vaccinations.
• Always control your pet in front of the rest of the users of the beach. You are responsible for it and for any damage it may cause.
• You should always collect your pet’s excrement, for which we advise you to carry enough bags so that you can then throw them in the bins on the beach.
• If your dog is a dangerous breed, he must wear a muzzle, collar and be on a leash.
• If your dog has already had episodes of aggression towards other animals or people, please do not take him to a dog beach. Your entry will be prohibited.
• Only the possession of two animals per person is authorized.
