 Bark Island has become a popular event in Hernando County providing dog owners the opportunity to spend some play time at the beach with their canine companion. 

It takes place on select Saturdays throughout the year, a schedule of days is available at the website if the Hernando Parks and Recreation Department. 

Each Bark Island is a two hour event and there is an admission charge of $7.00 for one dog per car.  Each Additional dog per car gets in at the reduced rate of $3.00.  Annual passes are also available. 

Other Things to Remember!

 

Proof of current vaccinations and licenses are required for each dog.  Dog owners are expected to clean up after their dogs if required.  You may let your dog run loose but It is recommended to keep animals on a leash if you may suspect they might act up or get too excited around other dogs or people.

Bark Island is a great way to have fun with your four-legged friend!  Enjoy!

Lawrence "Larry" & Sheila Agranoff. Call 631-805-4400 (c)   Thanks!  People and dogs enjoy it!

Nina Hollander it's great for people to be able to get out with their animals in different places than their normal routin.

Sheila Anderson I guess it goes to  the Parks department for the additional work required to keep the beach clean for people.

Roger D. Mucci  absolutely!

I wish they didn't have a limit. I would like to send a bus load of neighborhood dogs on a one way trip.

Silvia sounds like Bark Island is the ideal place for pet owners and their dogs to spend time at.  The island is very appropriately named :)

Silvia -- the question is who needs a break in routing more? We humans or our four-legged friends?

Dorie Dillard it sure is, thanks for stopping in!

Rob D. Shepherd  that is too funny.  However, dogs have to be accompanied by their person!

Captain Wayne Rowlett  I'm sure the Spaniels would have a great time!

George Souto  after the event, the name reverts to it's proper name Pine Island.
