Are you looking forward to a family beach vacation, but worried about affording the cost of a kennel for your canine companions? Well worry no more fellow pet lovers! There are many beaches throughout the USA that welcome little Fido along on your travels. One great destination for dog owners in search of a beach vacation is Jekyll Island, Georgia.
Jekyll Island sits roughly halfway between the metros of Savannah and Jacksonville and is largely made up of barrier island beaches and dune lines flanked by woodlands. Here you can partake in fun activities such as golf, tennis, kayaking, and biking.
There is a water park providing fun for the whole family, along with quieter pursuits such as bird watching and walking the beautiful shores.
If you bring your family dog along with you, walking along the shores is something that you will indeed want to do, because Jekyll Island allows your furry friends on the beach too. Dogs are allowed on Jekyll Island Beach all year long, which makes it an ideal getaway for families traveling with pets.
Additionally, there are abundance of pet friendly hotels, motels, and cabins available for your stay. If you are traveling with your pet, reservation is recommended, as many places offer only certain rooms for those who bring pets along. They also ask that you be sure to clean up after your pet as well, in consideration of the other guests and beach-goers!
