Dog off-leash areas

Council provides a number of dog off-leash areas along the foreshore across the Fraser Coast.
These areas provide the opportunity to play, exercise and socialise leash-free with other dogs and dog park visitors.
Dog off-leash areas can include facilities such as seating, water, dog waste bins/litter bag dispensers and some shaded areas.

Dog owners' obligations when attending off leash areas, you must ensure your 

  • dog is under your control. (for example, your dog will return to you when called)
  • dog is not a nuisance to other dogs and their owners.
  • dog's droppings are disposed of in the bins provided.
  • dog is registered with Council, wormed regularly, and its vaccinations are up to date.
