Dog care tips for the Gold Coast

Keep your dog safe in the Gold Coast's tropical heat and surf conditions.

Year-round heat

The Gold Coast is warm year-round. Provide shade, fresh water, and avoid midday walks, especially on sand.

Surf safety

Gold Coast surf can be powerful. Only let dogs swim at calm beaches or creek spots. Avoid rip currents.
