Review & FAQ:

Foss Beach is a stretch of rocky and sandy beach which is very popular with dog owners, who are welcome to bring their pooches to the beach from sunrise to 9am and again from 7pm to midnight each day from Memorial Day through Labor Day. (The exception is on Saturdays when dogs may only join their owners on the beach after 9pm). The beach is around 300 feet long, stretching from Rye Harbor State Park to just beyond Washington Rd. Dogs are allowed to enjoy the beach off-leash (provided they are voice controlled). You are advised to check the tides before visiting – this narrow stretch of beach almost completely disappears at high tide.
