Pet-friendly rentals so your best friend can come to the beach too!
Choosing a pet-friendly vacation rental is a great way to include everyone in the family. Coastal North Carolina happens to be one of the best pet-friendly beach destinations on the East Coast. Choose from these popular destinations–Wrightsville Beach, Carolina Beach, Kure Beach, Ocean Isle Beach, and Topsail Island—they are all happy to welcome you and your furry travel companions.
Pet-friendly rentals in Topsail Island
Dogs won’t be the only wildlife you see enjoying the pristine shores on Topsail Island. You might spot dolphins swimming nearby, and keeping your dog on a leash helps protect the resident loggerhead sea turtles on shore during nesting season but still gives plenty of wiggle room for your pet to have a good time. However, unhook those leashes during the off-sea- son and let them explore in the dedicated dog beach area.
Topsail Island offers approximately 26 miles of beautiful Atlantic coastline, so you’ll always find a place to set up for a beach day with your dog.
Need a break from the beach? Take in the sights while strolling the dog-friendly Soundside Park boardwalk or cross the Surf City Bridge to the mainland to visit the Surf City Bark Park, complete with trails, a dog water fountain, and other four- legged friends.
