Campsites, lodges, hotels with your dog by the sea
Going on vacation by the sea with your dog and being able to enjoy the beach with him is possible! even if the beaches accepting dogs are becoming increasingly rare… Here is a selection of accommodation labeled QUALIDOG by EmmèneTonChien.com which are located right next to a beach accessible to dogs! I have selected 10 campsites near the sea that accept dogs! I let you discover them !
NB: be careful, some dog owners who do not pick up their dog's droppings on the beach are responsible for closing the beach during the season. The municipalities, exasperated by these irresponsible and disrespectful behaviors, are obliged to take an order to ban dogs on the beach because they no longer have the means to clean the beaches!! Remember to check that the beach is still dog-friendly. We try to keep this content up to date but we are rarely informed of these changes during the season...
