     Invite your top dog to a "fur-st-class" tour of the most tail-wag-worthy haunts around North Bay Road, an icon of waterfront luxury in Miami Beach!    

    Spoil your four-legged diva with a day of sun-soaked strolls, prime squirrel-watching, and more gourmet treats than their kibble budget allows at the high-end dog-friendly playgrounds near North Bay Road, a coveted stretch of prime Miami Beach real estate.

    A proud home of the elite, from A-list celebrities to business tycoons, North Bay Road stretches roughly 4.5 miles along Miami Beach's western perimeters, beginning near South Beach's 20th Street and northward to 63rd Street in North Beach, its entire area dotted with waterfront and dry properties that are nothing short of spectacular. 

    Yet, while most exclusive communities are gated, North Bay Road is an exception, allowing it to be even MORE connected to the best of Miami Beach, including the city's greenest pet-friendly havens, from wide-open fields designed for full-throttle zoomies to scenic shoreline paths where salty breezes and sandy paws go hand in hand (or paw in paw)! 

    And we have the ultimate checklist to get the fun started!

     Here are the dog-friendly parks near North Bay Road. 

     1)    Pinetree Dog Park - Pinetree Park     (Top Pick!)        

     4493 Collins Ave, Miami Beach, FL 33140 

    A serene waterfront natural area that features shady trees, leisure areas, asphalt walking paths, a kayak launch, and more, Pinetree Park is a dreamy nature destination that you can share with Fido just 4 minutes from North Bay Road.

    In addition to the above-mentioned amenities and facilities, Pinetree Park boasts a community garden and a bark park for furry visitors. 

    Here, you'll find two fenced areas, divided for small and large breeds, where your dog can run wild with their four-legged friends, and benches for owners to sit on while they wait.

    Before you leave, grab some of the complimentary water available at the hydration stations around the park.

    Although this dog park is off-leash, your dog must remain on a leash before entering and exiting the dog park.

     2)    Pride Park 

     1809 Meridian Ave., Miami Beach, FL 33139 

    Relax within the lush, 5.8-acre beauty of Pride Park, a green haven across from the Miami Beach Convention Center, just 5 minutes from North Bay Road.

    Alongside Miami Beach Botanical Garden and several other attractions, Pride Park is part of the Miami Beach City Center Campus in the Miami Beach Convention Center district. 

    Pride Park, named in support of the LGBTQ+ community and to promote civic pride in the City of Miami Beach, offers a shaded respite with a veterans memorial, walkways, a sculpture by celebrated artists Elmgreen & Dragset, and a central lawn. 

    The park allows dogs on leashes.

    Whether you're in the area for a convention or just exploring Miami Beach, Pride Park is a great place to unwind while surrounded by nature.

     3)    Miami Beach Soundscape 

     400 17th St, Miami Beach, FL 33139 

    Welcome to Miami Beach Soundscape Park, the green heart of Frank Gehry's New World Symphony campus and a world-class destination that marries music, design, and culture just 6 minutes from North Bay Road. 

    The lush, contemporary park is the perfect place for visitors to unwind year-round under the shade of trees or a starlit sky- whether you're human or the furry kind!

    Iconic pergolas embrace the park edges, their shape inspired by the puffy cumulous clouds inherent in South Florida's tropical climate. 

    Their hand-fabricated painted aluminum structures not only provide shade but also support the spectacular blooms of bougainvillea vines, highlighting a threshold of color at the park's points of entry.

    One of the park's most prominent features is an unprecedented, distinctive, and ambitious audio-visual program that creates an outdoor theatre offering free performances at concert-level quality. 

    The design of a family of custom architectural elements– the Ballet Bar, the Projection Tower, and the Media Hydrants – transformed what could have been an overwhelming number of park structures into an integrated and lyrical park element.

    This 2.5-acre urban park welcomes well-behaved, leashed dogs at most of its events, including concerts, films, yoga, and other public gatherings. 

    Dogs are allowed on the park grounds but not in the adjacent New World Symphony building.

    Don't forget to bring a leash!

     4)    Miami Beach Boardwalk 

     46th Street & Collins Avenue to 23rd Street, Miami Beach, FL 33140 

    While the famous Miami Beach Boardwalk isn't considered a park, per se, this four-mile stretch of walkway is best for walks, sightseeing, and people-watching with Fido, just 7 minutes from North Bay Road!

    Heads up — the beach itself isn't dog-friendly, but the good thing about the boardwalk is you're welcome to run or walk with your dog on a leash along this path, provided you're considerate of others. 

    Nonetheless, taking this trail means more chances to see the sun, sand, and waves of Miami Beach with your pup, buy from local vendors, watch street performers, and join events often set up along the way.

    If your furry pal loves a nice, long walk with lots of new sights and smells, Miami Beach Boardwalk is a perfect place to get sunshine and exercise!

     5)    Belle Isle Park 

     Belle Isle Park, Miami Beach, FL 33139 

    Step into Belle Isle Park, home to one of Miami Beach's dog parks, the Belle Isle Dog Park, a fantastic destination made just for Fido just a 7-minute drive from North Bay Road.

    Located in the center of a small island connecting Miami Beach to the city, Belle Isle Park offers plenty of amenities you can enjoy, such as a winding, paved walkway that guides you through the park perimeters, always green and filled with soft, well-maintained grass, water fountains for you and your pup, and benches under shade trees.

    Belle Isle Park also has a playground for kids.

    Meanwhile, Belle Isle Dog Park has two separate enclosures for small and big dogs in the dog play area. Poop bags are available too.

    Don't forget to bring a leash! 

    You'll need it when coming in and out of the park.

     6)    Maurice Gibb Memorial Park 

     18th St & Purdy Avenue, Miami Beach, FL 33139 

    A palm-shaded waterfront park with playgrounds & paths memorializing the late Bee Gees band member, Maurice Gibb Memorial Park offers stunning waterfront views and is a popular spot for couples, dog owners, and families just 7 minutes from North Bay Road. 

    Yes, folks, this park allows dogs within its perimeter as long as they're leashed!

    The gorgeous nature spot offers large shade trees, a playground for the kids, and an array of walking paths. There is also a wooden platform on the water, covered by trees, for enjoying the breeze.

    It's a peaceful park for some sun and nature appreciation for Fido. 

    Adjacent to the park are the Sunset Harbour condos and its marina, so it makes for some fun people-watching and boat-watching, too!

     7)    Collins Park 

     2100 Collins Ave, Miami Beach, FL 33140 

    A small park with perfectly manicured lawns, winding sidewalks, and palm trees for the perfect photo backdrop, Collins Park is, yet again, another lush and serene nature spot you can bring your dog around North Bay Road, just 8 minutes away.

    Decorated with public art, the park offers a small playground for children, walking paths for a stroll with Fido, an expansive grass area to enjoy a quiet moment, and a prime location near top tourist attractions in Miami Beach! 

    Collins Park is the perfect stopover after dilly-dallying in the city with your pup!

    Be sure to bring a lead when dropping by! 

    Collins Park only allows doggie visitors on a leash.

     8)    Fairway Park     (Top Pick!)       

     200 Fairway Dr., Miami Beach, FL 33141 

    A beautiful family park set south of Normandy Shores Golf Course, Fairway Park is a gated dog-friendly North Beach park with public access to amenities just 9 minutes from North Bay Road.

    At Fairway Park, you can enjoy a children's playground with swings, slides, a rock climbing walk, two tennis courts, a basketball court, a soccer field, and pavilions with public bathrooms and vending machines. 

    Oh, and did you know that it also has a dog park?

    On the southeast corner, you'll find Fairway Park Bark Park with a double-gated dog entrance that allows owners to unleash their pets in a holding area before releasing them into the off-leash bark park. 

    Other dog park amenities include a complimentary dog waste collection station and disposal can.

    Don't forget to bring a leash! 

    While Fairway Bark Park allows dogs to explore without a leash, you'll need to put your pup on a lead at the rest of Fairway Park.

     9)    Flamingo Park   

     11 St. & Jefferson Ave., Miami Beach, FL 33139 

    Nestled in the heart of South Beach is a 36.53-acre park that dates back to 1950 that your pup will love to explore, just 9 minutes from North Bay Road.

    Welcome to Flamingo Park, a famous South Beach recreational destination with a beautifully landscaped state-of-the-art aquatic facility, a world-class baseball stadium, basketball courts, handball/racquetball courts, a memorial football stadium/running track, and soccer and softball fields. 

    Yes, folks, this park is jampacked with activities, and best of all, it has a bark park for canine visitors too!

    The dog park has two separate areas, one opened at a time to continuously serve the users. 

    The bark park serves as a social setting for owners to let their dogs off-leash, but remember to clean up after your pup and keep them on a leash in all other areas of Flamingo Park.

    Water is available in the runs, so Fido can grab a drink when needed. 

    The property is also home to agility and training equipment and a bike and walking track, where Fido is welcome to join his family on a lead. 

    Complimentary poop bags are available on the premises. 

    Other park amenities include a tot lot/playground and a tennis center.

     10)    Bark Beach - North Beach Oceanside Park    (Top Pick!)       

     8328 Collins Ave, Miami Beach, FL 33141 

    Who knew that North Bay Road pups could be so lucky lounging beachside at their very own Bark Beach, just 10 minutes away?

    Located in North Beach Oceanside Park, Bark Beach is Fido's perfect spot for sun, sand, and sea!

    While the entire beach area along North Beach Oceanside Park is off-limits to non-human visitors, Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays between 1:30 PM and 5:30 PM are an exception! 

    During this period, the section between 80th and 81st Streets becomes an off-leash doggy paradise, where your dog can romp in the sand and splash in the water as long as they keep within the dog beach area.

    Let your dog play under the sun, crush the sand castle you built, or get their paws wet on the beach — these four-legged beachgoers can run the stretch without a leash, but keep it on hand for entering and exiting Bark Beach and in the rest of the park. 

    After the long beach day, bring your pups to North Beach Oceanside Park's dog park so the fun doesn't end just yet!

    It has two double-fenced dog-run areas, one for large dogs and one for small dogs, so your pup can ditch the leash again inside the area, alongside water fountains, benches, bags, and trash cans to make clean-up a breeze!

     11)    Canopy Park    

     701 West Ave, Miami Beach, FL 33139 

    Take your pup to Canopy Park, Miami Beach's new three-acre community park between 600 and 700 blocks of Alton Road, just 10 minutes from North Bay Road!

    At Canopy Park, visitors can enjoy open green spaces shaded by native tree species, pedestrian trails, bike paths, an outdoor gym, a dog run, an expansive children's playground, and public art displays. 

    Designed with sustainability in mind, Canopy Park reflects how landscape architecture can serve as a green resiliency solution for coastal communities with a host of environmentally conscious features, including a Maritime Hammock, bioswales, and a 25,000-gallon cistern to conserve and manage rainwater.

    As for its four-legged visitors, they'll have their slice of heaven on the park's designated oval lawn!

    An environmentally conscious nature spot for outdoor lovers and pups? 

    Who can resist this beauty?
