About the Park
Gates are open from 6 a.m. to 8 p.m. at Recreation Dog Park, which suits Long Beach owners who beat the Southern California sun with an early start. The park sits in the 90804 zip code on the city's east side and costs nothing to use. Off-leash play is the core offering; fencing and surface details are not confirmed in our records, so give the grounds a once-over before letting your dog loose. Long Beach's mild coastal climate keeps this a year-round option, though summer afternoons still warrant water and shade breaks. Fourteen hours of daily access is generous by city-park standards — plenty of margin for before-work and after-dinner visits alike.
infoWhat to Know Before You Go
Recreation Dog Park is an off-leash area without full fencing. Make sure your dog has solid recall before letting them loose, and keep an eye on them near any roads or boundaries.
Best of all, Recreation Dog Park is completely free to visit — no membership or daily fees required.
backpackWhat to Bring
Fresh water and a bowl
Even parks with water fountains can have them out of service. Bring your own to be safe.
Poop bags
Most parks provide them, but don't rely on it. Always come prepared to clean up after your dog.
A folding chair
This park may have limited seating, so a portable chair can make longer visits more comfortable.
A reflective collar or light-up leash
If you visit near dusk, visibility gear helps you keep track of your dog and stay safe.
High-value treats
Useful for practicing recall in a distracting environment and rewarding good social behavior.
Your dog's favorite toy
A familiar toy can help shy dogs feel more comfortable and give them something to focus on.
