A reminder to our fishermen. 🐟
Please take home your unwanted fishing line. I pulled this discarded line out of my dogs 🦮 mouth on Middle Beach. Thankfully no hook 🪝was attached.
Let’s all enjoy the beach 🏖️ and be mindful of our rubbish.

🏖️🐾 Holiday Tips from Eku Paws! 🐾🏖️

We love seeing happy pups enjoying the beach, but let’s keep tails wagging responsibly! Here are a few reminders to keep everyone safe and smiling this holiday season:

✅ DO’s:
- Keep your dog on a leash at all times.
- Be a paw-sitive beachgoer – scoop the p**p and dispose of it properly (bins or back home).

🚫 DON'T’s:
- No dogs allowed on Blue Flag beaches when the flag is flying (7:30 AM–5:30 PM). 🕰️
- Remember, inspectors will be patrolling, and fines will apply!

Let’s work together to make the beach a happy place for everyone—two-legged and four-legged alike! 🐶🌊
