Long Beach's only dog beach. Rosie's has plenty of beach front metered parking with long parallel parking spaces for RVs or trailers. There is a lot of sand that separates the parking lot from the ocean, there are no fences though, I feel there's enough separation from the lot to the ocean though, not really anything to worry about. You gotta keep your dog on a leash until you hit these metal pillars then they are free to run. Long Beach is protected by a man made wall of rocks called the breakwater, built to stop the waves and calm the water for the ships coming into port, so the water at Rosie's is never too rough and has smaller waves. My dog loves to swim here and we come all the time. Keep in mind, this is a dog beach, dogs will run on your towel if you are laying out, so if you are gonna get mad about a wet dog and some sand, maybe don't plan a beach day for yourself, this if all about the doggsssss :)

*** They do not have dog water fountains, so make sure you bring your own water!

Where a pet deserve's it's own independence from the leash. Come to Rosie's Dog Beach just for that! A nice way for your dog to socialize with others as well. Also a fabulous way to see other kind of breeds.

You can let your dog run and play in the water and socialize with other dogs. My miniature schnauzer, Darla loved it...even though she doesn't like to get wet!
