Dog Parks in the San Juans

Off-leash areas for boaters (pun intended)  in the 

San Juan Islands 

This may seem like an almost useless bit of knowledge to visitors on a boat, but there are a few dog parks within walking distance at these ports.

Friday Harbor:

Eddie & Friends Dog Park is located on Mullis Street near the airport.  It's about a one-mile walk.

Roche Harbor:

 Another option on San Juan Island is Pup Town Dog Park, located at Roche Harbor

Eastsound:

This off-leash area in Buck Park is a one mile walk from the county dock.

Lopez Village:

Unfortunately, Lopez Island does not at this time have a designated dog park or an off leash area, however, there are several suitable leash areas with easy cruiser access.

• The Spit preserve is adjacent to the entrance of Fisherman Bay and requires a dinghy.
• Lopez Village Park has restrooms and large lawn areas. There is no dock access but you may come ashore by dinghy   Dinghy access to the village 
• Odlin County Park has a dock and large grassy play fields.

There are several other areas where dogs are welcome but not any we want to walk to.  Of course, all the parks except Matia Islands (trails) welcome pets on a leash.
