Berrow Beach
Berrow Beach is a quiet, spacious stretch of coastline and a fantastic option for dog walking. It’s dog friendly all year round and was awarded a Seaside Award in 2017, making it a stress-free choice for a beach walk with your dog at any time of year.
The beach stretches for miles, offering plenty of space for dogs to run, dig and explore. There are a couple of parking options: the main beach car park near Beachside Holiday Park on Coast Road (Brean, TA8 2QZ) is paid, with payment taken on entry, while a smaller car park opposite Sandy Glade Holiday Park (TA8 2AX) gives direct access to Berrow Dunes Local Nature Reserve.
Like nearby Weston-super-Mare, the tide at Berrow goes a long way out, leaving vast expanses of sand and areas of soft mud. When the tide is in, an old shipwreck can be visible at low water, so it’s worth being aware of your surroundings. Dogs tend to love this beach, whether they’re digging in the sand or charging across the open shoreline. Horses are sometimes present, but they’re usually easy to spot and avoid if needed.
Just behind the beach, Berrow Dunes Local Nature Reserve can be accessed from multiple points. The sand dunes add variety to the walk and make a great change of scenery after time spent on the beach. These dunes are relatively rare in the UK and are designated as a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI). We’d highly recommend combining both areas into a circular walk if you have the time.
