About
Bispham Beach is a sandy, dog-friendly beach, with the Blackpool tramway running along the seafront behind the promenade. Bispham Beach is less busy on summer days than its Blackpool neighbour, and unlike the main Blackpool beaches, which restrict dogs in summer, you can access it with dogs year-round.
Bispham has a wide promenade along the concrete sea defences; at high tide you have no beach, but at low tide you have miles and miles of sand to run on. Even at high tide, the promenade offers a nice dog walk with benches.
One option is to catch the tram to Bispham and then walk back to Blackpool along the beach and/or promenade.
Dog Access and Rules
Bispham Beach allows dogs year-round and is a good option when Blackpool restricts dogs in the summer.

Access and Facilities
You can access Bispham on the Blackpool tramway, and you have toilets by the tram stop and a few cafes back in the houses.
To access the beach, you need to drop down a few levels: first, drop down from the tramway to the main promenade and then drop down again from the sea defence wall onto the beach.
