DOG FRIENDLY DAYS OUT IN ST IVES

T he beaches both in and around St Ives never fail to impress. Every beach in the town is dog friendly throughout the year, however, some do operate bans at certain times during the day. Bamaluz Beach is small and perfect for playful pups. For dog-friendly beaches near St Ives without seasonal restrictions, head to the nearby havens of Porthkidney Beach, Mexico Towans, and Gwithian Beach.
