CGGQ+V7 Colwood, BC, Canada park-icon-wath
Located in beautiful Colwood, BC, this park is a dog-friendly area that offers a delightful outing for both you and your furry companion. Enjoy a refreshing swim together in the designated swimming area, surrounded by picturesque views of the ocean. The park showcases stunning sandy beaches and intriguing driftwood sculptures, making it a scenic spot for leisurely walks. User reviews highlight the enjoyable 3, 5, or even 10-kilometer stretches available along the shore, although be mindful of the busy road nearby and the need for leash compliance—especially at one end due to increasing enforcement. While the park lacks certain amenities like a fully fenced area, designated spots for big and small dogs, and specific dog-friendly trails, it's a lovely beach setting that many dog owners appreciate. Expect some visitors to ignore leash rules, but the general atmosphere allows for plenty of fun and interaction. Though it can get busy at times, the park maintains cleanliness, making it a great spot for regular walks with your dog. With a solid rating of 4.2 stars from fellow dog owners, this location is definitely worth checking out for a day of sun, sand, and wagging tails!

We always go here. It either 3,5 or 10 kms on the ocean. We are always off leash with no issues at all. Low tide is amazing.

Beautiful beach and interesting driftwood statues make this a fun and easy walk along the ocean. Caution about a busy road that runs through and a bird sanctuary on one side.

At this end, dogs must be kept on leash. I've been told enforcement is increasing.

Not a park at all but a nice beach and walk to take your dog. Can get really busy as it's a lovely beach but my dog really enjoyed himself. It's within walking distance to our house so we go often. Always clean. Dogs must be kept on leash but people flagrantly ignore that.
