Petfriendly Beaches
As a pet-owner, when you are looking for a hotel, you can refine the results by applying the ‘admits animals’ filter to find a good place to stay for you and your dog.
We think that the more well-behaved dogs and dog-owners that there are, the more likely it is that other locations will open up access for pets. For this reason, we suggest that you inform yourself of the local rules for each beach that you visit to avoid fines from 90 to 3000 euros. This all depends on the season and the region.
