At Palm Beach parklands pooches can enjoy the best of both worlds, from Currumbin Creek to the surf

Nudgee Beach may be the closest beach to Brisbane city that is dedicated to pooches but there are quite a few options further afield for feeling the sand between their paws. Our absolute favorite (and our dog's) is Palm Beach on the Gold Coast. Coolum's dog beach is a close second but they are all really worth the drive!
