Walking and running with a dog is a popular
pastime along the coast. Dog owners need to be aware there is a leash
law in towns and on beaches, including the beaches of Cape Lookout
National Seashore. Please beware that most beaches and incorporated town
areas also require you to clean up after your pets. Even if it is not
the law, dog owners should make it their responsibility to clean up
after their pets. The Beaufort
historic district and waterfront are popular walking and running spots
for dog lovers, and special poop scoop bags are provided at a few spots
along the Beaufort waterfront. The Morehead City waterfront and downtown
areas are also great places to walk and run with your four-legged
friend.
