About
Hannafore Beach is a dog-friendly pebble beach with some sandy patches and lots of rock pools at low tide. It is a long beach on the west side of Looe Estuary, with a small grass area between the beach and the road.
The main beach at Looe (Looe East Beach) has a total dog ban, so it is one of the few dog-friendly beaches in this area. Because of its size, it is rarely too busy, although at high tide most of the beach is underwater.
Dog Access and Rules
Hannafore Beach allows dogs year-round with no restrictions. As Looe’s main beach has a total ban, this is a good option if you’re visiting Looe with your dog.
