Marin County is a paradise for dogs and their people, with some of the most spectacular outdoor recreation in the Bay Area. Point Reyes National Seashore offers miles of dog-friendly beaches and trails, while Mount Tamalpais State Park provides sweeping views from summit to coast. Dogs love romping on Stinson Beach and the wide-open expanses of the Marin Headlands.

The county is home to exceptional off-leash areas including Crissy Field and Rodeo Beach within the Golden Gate National Recreation Area. Charming towns like Sausalito, Mill Valley, and San Anselmo welcome dogs at outdoor cafes and boutique shops. Visit Marin can help you plan a full itinerary of dog-friendly hikes, beaches, pet-welcoming restaurants, and cozy lodging options throughout this stunning coastal county just across the Golden Gate Bridge.
