Planning a beach trip with your pup? From Sunday 1 November, summer dog restrictions come into effect at selected Christchurch and Banks Peninsula beaches.

Between 9am and 7pm, from 1 November to 31 March, dogs are prohibited from designated areas to help keep our most popular swimming and recreation spots safe and enjoyable for everyone.

Some coastal areas also have year-round dog restrictions to help protect native wildlife and nesting shorebirds.

Before heading out, check the dog control map and beach rules to make sure you know where your dog can go 🐕🌊
