Controlling your dog in a public place

As a responsible pet owner you must ensure your four legged friend is always on a leash and under your control when out and about in public areas.

We want everyone to enjoy their Esperance experience, which means being able to relax and go about your holiday without being disturbed by disruptive dogs.

Animal Exercise Areas

To assist local dog owners and visitors alike, Esperance has designated areas where your dog can enjoy a run around without being restricted to a leash.

If you choose to exercise your dog off it's leash in the approved areas, you must have effective control of your dog, meaning you must be close by and you must carry the leash to use if required.

The Foreshore 

Heading east of the Tanker Jetty, along the beach to Straker Street (on Castletown Quays), between the hours of 5am to 8am and 4pm to 8pm daily. Dogs must be held on a leash during excluded times.

The area from the Tanker Jetty extending west to the Port is not a recognised dog exercise area, and as such, dogs must be held on a lead at all times along the beach, on all grassed areas and on the footpaths.

Reserves

The Greater Sports Ground (provided when you go with your dog does not conflict with any organised function being conducted within the reserve).

Public Land outside the Town Site Boundary

Restrictions relating to the leashing of dogs apply within the town site of Esperance only and not remote areas to which the public have access unless signs are erected specifically indicating otherwise. Keep in mind there may be 1080 poisoned bait located in various areas around the district.

Prohibited Dog Areas

National Parks & Reserves

The Department of Biodiversity, Conservation & Attractions, in association with the other national park services in Australia, implement the policy of not allowing pets (even when on a leash or enclosed in a vehicle) into national parks and nature reserves.

Twilight Beach
Dogs are prohibited in the area from the headland at Twilight Beach to the rocks to the east of the Surf Lifesaving Club.

Cattery & Kennels

If you are keen to camp for a few days out in a National Park, be confident that your pet will be provided for in a safe and secure environment with these local catteries and kennels.
