Camber Sands

About this park

Camber Sands, located near Rye in East Sussex, boasts over two miles of spectacular golden sand and is home to the region's only sand dune system, providing a unique and valuable habitat. For responsible dog owners, the beach offers ample space for dogs to run and play. During the off-peak season (October to April), dogs are welcome on all areas of the beach, allowing for vast adventures across the sand and through the dunes. However, from May to September, restrictions apply to certain sections of the beach to ensure the comfort and safety of all visitors, with clear signage indicating where dogs are permitted or where they must be kept on a lead if allowed. The expansive sandy terrain and the unique dune landscape offer a diverse environment for canine exploration, from brisk walks along the shoreline to more sheltered sniffs among the dunes. Owners are reminded to be mindful of wildlife within the dunes and to keep dogs under close control. While the beach is largely open, the sheer size means there’s always a quiet spot to be found, even with others around. Visitors should also be aware of fast incoming tides and soft sand/mud at low tide to ensure a safe and enjoyable outing. The key facilities at Camber Sands include several car parks, though it's advised to have a backup plan as they can fill up quickly during busy periods. Toilet facilities are available, with strict social distancing guidelines in place. Bins are provided at various points but please be prepared to take your litter home if they are full. There are no specific dog washing stations or designated dog cafes directly on the beach, but local amenities in Camber village may offer refreshments.Lifeguards are on duty at various times, mainly during the summer months, providing an added layer of safety.
