Nice big areas for dogs to run around off leash and socialize, separate area for small dogs. Nice amount of shade and sun with tables/chairs for people to sit, water fountains and trash cans. Good parking, restrooms and other activities available in Washington Park. Easy walk to Robert W. Crown Memorial State beach. Alameda is a beautiful city in San Francisco Bay with a terrific variety of restaurants and shopping areas.

Alameda dog park is right next to a beach and the surface is mostly sand. The terrain is flat and not very large but the sand is what makes this park unique around here. The people who go there for the most part are responsible and experienced, and the dogs seem to have a good time. There is a nice water fountain with plenty of bowls, and plenty of scoopers around for scooping your poop.This is a pretty good park. I will reserve a 5-star rating for a phenomenal dog wonderland, which this place is not, although it is a good park. The surrounding area is a residential neighborhood on one side and a public beach on the other side.

We enjoyed the small dog section of the Alameda dog park today. Lots of dogs and people - Veterans day holiday.There is a large area for the dogs to run around and play.

Alameda dog park is the best park I have ever being to. The two guys that work over there are the best Alameda has ever had.

Dusty, but fun! Loads of room to run and get those zoomies out! Theres also a sanctioned area for smaller friends

Pros: It is usually well maintained, and when not too crowded it is large enough for most dogs to get some excercise running and playing. At times it is the only reasonable and convenient option for dogs groups of 3 or more. Parking in the adjacent lot is usually available and free. On many days is is quiet and relaxing, and the few owners around are controlling their dogs.Cons: Can be hot and dirty in the summer and windy and muddy in the winter. There is some unpredictability about the types of interactions that might occur with other dogs. Nearly every time I go there is a another dog helping themselves to all of my dogs’ things while the owner looks on, while this is annoying I appreciate the responsible owners.Needs improving: In/Out Gates are cumbersome and a lot of tangling and confusion could be avoided by installing a simple sliding gate. Bathroom facilities are rarely clean. More water stations.Kudos for: Creating and maintaining a free large dog park, something that is we really need more of.

This is a very popular spot. Some of the dog owners really suck. But there are a bunch of us regulars that get along great and the dogs are really nice.

1st time here today & it was great for our Starlight whos 5 months old. A lot small dogs here & will definitely come back.

Friendly dogs. Owners were picking up after their pets poop. Everyone was taking turns refilling the water bowls. There are random tennis balls and tug of war ropes around for dogs to play with. Its pretty big so theres a lot of running room to tire them out! The park has two sections. One for small pups and another for big ones.

Went here 4 times in 2 weeks and now my dog has kennel cough! Ive enjoyed this place in the past, but it would feel irresponsible to go back.

Awsome place to take your dogs and they have a couple small dog pens so your dogs can adjust to so much excitement.

Friendly people, clean dog park, lovely views.

You know sand too far away from the beach gets really dirty and gross? That is how it is at this dog park. Not a favorite.

HUGE and has parking. Really glad we got to come here!

This dog park is so fly. Legit soaring. No other park this side of the Pecos has this much out right pizzazz. The chill factor at the crown beach pooch palace is top notch - straight magic!

Everythings been cleaned up and made nicer than before COVID. Only complaint was that the water dispenser wasnt working today

Nice place, great dogs, good people. Folks are respectful and clean up after their pups so its not covered in poo either. All in all a great place to bring your dog.

Great place to bring your dogs, friendly atmosphere, clean. Lots of parking, handicap parking and handicap accessibility. Public restrooms available. Kid friendly

Very little grass, mostly sand and dirt. Owners and dogs are friendly for the most part.

Great place for any and all dogs to get some energy out and play!

My dog had a field day. Best time I beleive he has had in all of 5months puppy time.

The dogs are extremely friendly there, best place to take your canine companion to have fun.

Aside from the occasional delirious dog mom and getting your shoe peed on..its a great park

Now that I took my dog here, it is apparent to me he is autistic. Nice relaxed mixed all inclusive crowd of dog lovers. Small and Big dog park with a shared shared fence. Entry is a double door no dog can run out or in. Had a good time. parking can be tough.

It was busy but i had found parking pretty quickly. Small dogs have a smaller yard but it is NOT small. The big dogs are seperate but small can go in. My boys had a FUN time playing and running! There was a few unaltered dogs that wanted to hump or was being humped but otherwise no issues for us. The boys had a lot of water bowl choices since they were throughout the yard and they were all small bowls so they could reach. It was a quarter grass but 3/4 sand which wasnt terrible. There is an onleash beach about 5 min walk away. They had fun there too.

It is a nice and pretty place for my furry brother.

Its a great place for dogs. The owners are friendly and give the dogs leeway, and the area is great. Trees, grass, and branches. Its a great place for dogs and owners

We enjoyed this park. Large, plenty of dog waste station and friendly people. Held up well in the rain. Sand based.

Its big enough you can avoid large dog groups. People are friendly and its part of a nice water front park

I really appreciate the small dog/large dog division of play areas. Its a nice dog park with ample parking, seating, and friendly dogs and people. My dog absolutely loves it here.

Best dog park in the East Bay. Big open space to run in, tons of other dogs, and friendly people. There are separate big and little dog areas, water stations, and tools for picking up waste without having to use your baggies. I come here just about every day, its fantastic.

There are separate areas for small and large dogs with lots of space to run, and plenty of nearby parking. We visited on a Saturday and the park was fairly busy with many friendly regulars who made us feel welcome.

Theres a big dog side and a small dog section. The big dog area is massive! There are benches dispersed throughout the park as well as some under shady trees to sit and relax in any weather. All around this is a great dog park.

We take our 20 pound shiba to this dog park all the time. The park is separated into a small and large dog area with no dogs greater than 30 pounds allowed on the small side and anyone allowed on the large side. We use both sides with our dog depending on how busy it is. The dog park is near the beach and is mostly sand with some grass. There are water fountains for the dogs, benches for the people, and scoops for picking up your dogs unmentionables. My only complaint is that the fences are set all that deep into the ground. Our dog has come somewhat close to digging under the separator between the two sides. All in all, this is the best dog park in the area that we have tried!

The small dog park is great, we have made friends and never had any issues! Easy to meet people or keep to yourself

Its such a happy place to bring your family dog ...my little fella really enjoyed himself and just trotted all over introducing himself to every dog in there...I believe he was overwhelmed with glee***Its amazing how clean the dog parks are as I hadnt been there in about 7 yrs and everything is kept **

My pup loves this place. I only wish it didnt puddle up so much when it rains.

Good place to let your dog run around with other dogs. There are two parks one for big dogs and one for small dogs.

My dogs love coming here because of how large and wide open the space is. There is plenty of shade for hot days and great areas to play fetch.

Big park with plenty of room for the dogs to run. I didnt see any dog fights, the amazing thing was no owners were fighting. For that it gets four stars.

Very open, lots of receptacles for dog poop, theres a water fountain for dogs ! There are 2 separate areas; an area for big dogs and an area for small dogs. Lots of chairs and benches to sit on. Come here a couple times a week! Our dogs love the socialization

A view of the bay while the pups play!

Updated with water fountains for folks and dogs. Pooper scooped and places to sit. My dog likes to take a break from her service work to boss the civilians around.

So wonderful to have this available!! Everyone seems pretty respectful, by chatting or not chatting, but everyone has been very understanding and encouraging to me with my new rescue dog. There are always going to be exceptions, but it seems to be pretty clean and people pick up their dogs poop. Great location. Nice big park for the big dogs, good size for the little dogs.

Great place for my dog to run an socialize​ with other dogs.

Two different enclosures for big and small dogs. Great park to let them run and play!

My dog loves all the dogs there and they have separate little dog and big dog area

Nice dog park ,though sand and gravel instead of grass ,but nice views and is very large includes fountains for dogs and people have left plenty of chairs to sit around on through the park

Great people with friendly dogs.

Could use more shaded areas but overall a nice park for the pups

I like they have a separate field for bigger and smaller dogs. They have a dog fountain to drink water and my dog is shy so it was cute to see the other dogs come over and say hi then go back to playing

Big, lots of dogs, fenced in, and fascinating squirrels to watch and bark at forever.

This place is great for playing catch but is also large enough to walk the circumference with your pup and not get bored.

Large dog park with plenty of room for large dogs to run around. A couple of water stations. Would be nice if they had some park like structures for the dogs (tunnels, ramps, etc). Seperate area for smaller dogs. Transition spaces to leash and unlease your pups.

Lots of room to run, friendly and well behaved dogs and humans.

Fun place for puppers

Nice big park with a separate area for dogs to run and play. Theres a separate enclosure for large dogs to run and an area for the small dogs too!

Love this place! There is always lots of dogs for my two to play with. The park is well maintained and most of everyone is nice and respectful.

Amazing dog park with huge area for the big dogs and area for the small (big) guys. Lots of sand in middle and a couple cypress groves for exploring. Ladon will be back!

Nice space for little dogs.

Lots of dogs there on a weekend morning. Dog owners all seem respectful of the space and other dogs, however we found that many were bringing their bigger dogs to the small dog area which made it hard for our 7lb pup to play.

This parks big dog area is a lot bigger than the 1 at the San Leandro Marina.Took my pup there on a Sunday, Mothers day to be exact. Its mostly sand, which can tricky to move around in if you have feet/ankle issues.There are tons of places to sit and 2 huge shaded areas to relax in.There is a ton of dog poop under 1 of the shaded areas so venture in knowing that.

We go to the small dog section and really like it. Friendly people and pups, and most owners are attentive so it feels safe and fun. My dog is/was pretty shy, and after coming here hes gaining confidence and coming out of his shell. Its a very large space so he also loves having tons of room to sprint.

Big fenced in area, plenty of room to run around. A lot of sand, but has shade! People and dogs were friendly

Great clean nice area for walking dogs or a dog. This is Alameda park in conjunction with East Bay regional park right next to it. The park has tennis courts, basketball, swing sets, slides, baseball field, and picnic area.

Great park, spacious with water fountains designed for dogs.

A large park with both an area for small dogs separate from the area for bigger dogs. there is a water fountain on site, and parking is pretty straightforward! Its a little dusty which is why I didnt give it a five stars..

Its the dogs and owners that make this the best park ever. Plus the staff works hard to keep it clean. There are peak times where parking can be illusive.

Lots of dogs big & small. Friendly owners that interacted with people & animals. Clean fenced in area. My 4 month old mini Aussie Shephard had a great time.

Some crazy dogs and owners out thereThis is NOT for the meek and mildBEWARE OF AGGRESSIVE DOGS!!

Dirty, full of fleas n owners do not pick up poop waste.

This place is my little dogs favorite place in the world. I use the small dog (

Kool place to share the fun with other dogs

Nice and big. Friendly people and dogs. Could use some more seating.

Easily one of the best dog parks I gave been to. HUGE, always has a lot of dogs.

It was a really good dog park. It has grass and sand, and there a lot of other dogs there for Jewels to play with.

I love this place!!! All kinds of dogs running around and playing with eachother. I recommend if you have a take them there. There is a section for different sizes. But BE WARNED of the German Shepherd on a leash. His male owner keeps him on a leash and will instigate dog fights.

Nice big park. Sandy with balanced shade and seating.

Separate areas for big dogs and small dogs, water fountains, shade for hot days, picnic tables, fixed and moveable chairs. Highly recommend.

One park for smalls. Another for bigs. Woof

Tons of puppies

Great place! Highly recommend you wear shoes and not sandals.

Our pup is pretty happy when he comes here. Plenty of tennis balls lying around if you forget one!

Well thought of park for all sizes of dogs, good for dogs to play & socialize, owners can relax under a shade or train their pets with a spacious area for the big dogs to gallop.

Great space for the dogs to run loose and socialize with other dogs. Clean, plenty of poop stations and very responsible dog owners there.

Great dog park.

Had s ball with all the dogs and wonderful owners

Great park lots of dogs

So friendly

Big enclosed dog park. Great for the dog to explore while still being contained

Dog owners were very friendly and helpful my dog enjoyed himself he was a little shy but soon got with the other dogs

Good place for picture opportunities. Everyone was friendly at the dog park. Scenic and relaxing.

Is a beautiful place to bring your dogs and have some fun near the beach

One of our favorite small dog park (theres also a very large big dog park). The small dog park has a good mix of grass and sand. The dogs are very well behaved. And the weather is great. And the parking lot is right next to the park.

Fun for the dogs. Lots of ball on ground so you can throw..

Great place for dogs to exert energy and meet other dog

Its my favorite underground dog fighting ring.

A very nice park

I enjoy taking my hairy baby to the Alameda Dog Park. Its a nice place for him to run around and interact with other dogs and socialize. A dear friend brought us to the park and weve been going at least two times bi-weekly.

My dog had a blast here! It was mine and my husbands first time taking him here yesterday and he played with the other dogs so well! They also provide a water fountain so your dog doesnt get dehydrated and there is so much space for the dogs to run around! Also they provide a few trash cans and tools to scoop up your dogs poop, it is very sandy though so your four legged friend will end up with sand everywhere and your shoes will end up filled with sand, but the regulars (people and dogs included) were very nice, we will absolutely bring our dog here again!
