This is an informal gathering of corgis and their people at a public beach. You know, it’s like when a really big group of friends decide to go to the beach all on the same day, and they all decide to bring their dogs with them. There are no dog beaches in North Carolina, so we make due with what we have. No, this won’t be like SoCal or NorCal Corgi Beach Day. Please be respectful of the beach, other dogs, and other beach goers. Please pick up after your dog and fill any holes. We do not want Topsail Beach to ban dogs because of us.

Please be aware that parking may be limited and you might have to walk to the access point.

North Carolina Corgi Beach Day 2019 is located at the Topsail Beach Davis Ave Public Access. Type in “Davis Ave and Ocean Blvd, Topsail Beach, NC,” to find the location in Google Maps.

This beach was chosen by the vote of the Corgi People. Dogs are allowed off leash this time of the year.

Here are the rules:

Are dogs allowed on the beach?

Yes, dogs are allowed, but they must be on a leash 20 ft or less from May 15th through September 30th. At other times the dog must be under voice command of a responsible person, but does not have to be on a leash. The person must always be prepared to remove any “deposits” left by the dog. These regulations apply to the entire town including the beach.

There is no set time or itinerary — just come and have fun! There is no set start or end time, but people typically tend to leave by mid-afternoon. Make sure to bring your lunch and plenty of water for your dogs. Earlier is better for parking.

Remember that this is a public beach and you are responsible for your own dog.

There are restrooms at a park nearby and a rinse off station

Frequently asked questions:
-Can I attend if I don’t have a corgi? Yes, it’s a public beach.
-Can I attend with a non-corgi? Yes, it’s a public beach.
-Can I leave poop at the beach and not pick up after my dog? No, don’t be a jerk, and pick up after your dog.
-What if there’s another event going on at Topsail Beach and traffic is crazy? Sorry, we can’t control Topsail Beach events.
-Will there be games and prizes? No, this isn’t the North Carolina Corgi Field Day (happens in October in Youngsville every year).
-Is there an itinerary? Nope. Basically, you just come to have a bunch of corgis play at the beach.
-Is there a specific begin and end time? No, come and go as you please, but I recommend getting there early.
-Will you move the date for me? No, this was voted on by the folks at Carolina Corgis.
-Where can I stay that is dog friendly? Please use CapeFearPets.com
