Lyall Bay Beach Dog Exercise Zone
Wellington's most popular off-leash beach, stretching from the airport end of Lyall Bay to just before Maranui Cafe. Dogs can run free, swim, and socialise year-round — a dog water bowl fountain is provided and the beach is typically buzzing with dogs of all sizes.
