Paw Playground (at Fort De Soto Park) is a pet paradise. This beautiful beach of clear waters and white sands is the perfect place where your four legged friends can enjoy a magical day. There is nothing more rewarding than see how they play and have fun. And when the day ends and the sunset disappear in the horizon you can look back and say: “This was an awesome day.”

Great park, a bit of a drive from Tampa but definitely worth it. My kids are both pretty large and love the huge fenced in area they are free to run around and play in. The beach area is also very nice and well maintained. The humans we've encountered there all seemed very friendly. As with any park there was some poop but if you don't expect to see some you shouldn't have a dog. My entire family highly recommends this park!

This is the best dog park I have been to. There is a great small and large dog separation. The dog beach is great too. My dogs do not listen very well but they still had a great time walking the beach and taking a dip in the water. Some owners I found let their dogs run a bit too far out of their sight but that is very few.

This was our second winter in Auburndale, FL. and we discovered doggy beach in Terra Verde. I had the best time with Maggie our lab retriever.

"This park was fantastic because it has the fenced in park and the off leash dog beach.  Dogs just need to be under voice command and the beach is so fun even my obedience challenged dogs had a great time just staying by the water near us.  The views from there are fantastic and families brought their beach chairs, blankets and picnics to the dog beach.  Lots of dogs were lounging in the sun.  Much bigger than any of the dog beaches we've ever been to." -Jen
