Jupiter is home to one of the very few remaining dog friendly beaches in the State of Florida and the only dog friendly beach in Palm Beach County. In 1989, the Town of Jupiter adapted a policy to allow dogs to roam freely in a 2.5 mile stretch of the beach. 

The dog friendly beach stretched from beach marker #59 at Carlin Park south to beach marker #25 at Marcinski Road. In this designated area, dogs are allowed to roam freely but must be always supervised.

Dogs are allowed on the beach from sunrise to sunset, 7 days a week. The Town of Jupiter has adopted a set of rules that they would like all pet owners to follow. The Friends of Jupiter provides free waste bags at every cross over along the designated dog friendly stretch. 

Parking is free along A1A or public parking lots at Carlin Park or Marcinski Road.
