Dog owners in Mogán now have more options to enjoy the coast with their pets. The Town Hall has officially enabled five pet-friendly beaches across the municipality, allowing residents and visitors to share the beach with their four-legged companions.
This new initiative reflects the growing demand for pet-friendly spaces in South Gran Canaria, where many locals, expats, and visitors enjoy an outdoor lifestyle with their pets.

Responsible Use of the Beaches
The initiative was officially presented at El Perchel beach by the mayor of Mogán, Onalia Bueno, together with the councillor for beaches Willy García and members of the local government.
The measure was introduced after listening to requests from residents and visitors who wished to enjoy the coast with their pets. To support the initiative, the municipality has installed additional rubbish bins and reinforced cleaning services.
Authorities remind visitors that the success of this pilot project depends on responsible behaviour, including cleaning up after pets and respecting other beach users.
