On By SIPOAIn Town of Seabrook Island

The peak season beach rules are in effect from April 1 – September 30. This includes rules for pets. For a full list of rules, click here.

Restricted Area (Red):

  • The restricted area begins at a line extending from Boardwalk #1 (Community Center Boardwalk) to the Atlantic Ocean and continues in a northeasterly direction to Cap’n Sams Inlet.
  • Within the restricted area, no pets shall be allowed at any time, whether on or off a leash.

Limited Restriction (Yellow):

  • The limited restriction area begins approximately 300 yards northwest of a line extending from Boardwalk #9 (Pelican Watch Boardwalk) to the Edisto River and continues in a northwesterly direction to Privateer Creek.
  • Within the limited restriction area, pets must be on a leash at all times.

General Beach Area (Green):

In all other areas of the beach, the following seasonal rules shall apply:

  • Peak Season (April 1 – September 30): Pets must be on a leash between the hours of 10:00am and 5:00pm. At all other times, pets may be off leash, provided they remain effectively controlled while on the beach;
  • Off-Peak Season (October 1 – March 31): Pets may be off a leash at all times, provided they remain effectively controlled while on the beach.

When a pet is required to be on a leash, it must be restrained using a physical restraint made of cord, rope, strap, chain or other material effective for restraining the type and size of animal to which it is attached. In addition, the physical restraint must be no more than sixteen (16) feet in length, secured to the animal’s collar or harness, and continuously held by a competent person physically capable of restraining the animal. Animals under voice control, or under control of remotely operated devices (such as electronic collars), are considered to be “off leash”.

When an animal is allowed to be off-leash, it must be effectively controlled by a competent person from: (a) entering any area on or adjacent to the beach in which a pet is prohibited; (b) destroying or damaging any property; (c) attacking or threatening to attack any person or any other animal or pet in any manner; or (d) being a nuisance to other beach goers.

The beaches of Seabrook Island are actively patrolled by code enforcement officers employed by the town, as well as designated personnel from the Seabrook Island Beach Patrol.

Beach Patrol officers begin patrolling on April 1.
