Town of Hampton: dogs on beaches

Seacoast, New Hampshire

Not yet confirmed with the town. Check the town website or signs before you go.

Reported: from Memorial Day to Labor Day, leashed dogs are allowed on town-owned beaches only before 8am and after 6pm; any time the rest of the year. We couldn't find this on the town's own website. Most of Hampton's beachfront is state-owned (see NH State Parks).
