This great dog park is fully fenced, and provides over an acre of room for your dog to run and play in the sunshine.

This park offers both grass and adobe to play on, and provides both large and small dog sections. If your dog needs to cool off, you can go down to the foot of First Street in downtown Benicia. There you'll find two beaches for your swimming pleasure.
