Dénia is one of the rare Costa Blanca municipalities with an officially designated year-round dog beach, the Platja Canina de Les Deveses on the long dune-backed sand strip north of the port. The main urban beaches (Les Marines and Las Rotas) ban dogs entirely from May to mid-October per Ajuntament ordinance, so the year-round dog beach is the headline asset for summer visitors. Outside the summer ban, the leashed-dog zone expands to all of Les Marines, and the rocky south coast at Las Rotas opens for off-season snorkelling with calm shallow water.

💡 From November to April this is your easy default sand-and-sea walk straight from the port. In May–October, use the paseo marítimo above the sand instead and head to Les Deveses dog beach 8 km north for the swim
💡 Bring booties for rocky access if your dog is sensitive on its paws. The water at Trampolí is shallow and crystal-clear, ideal for older dogs that are not strong swimmers
