History

Tybee Island’s dog park, nestled within the Tybee Island Beaches, began as a community-driven initiative responding to the increasing number of dog owners on the island.

Initially, there wasn't an official designated space for dogs to safely run and socialize, leading to concerns about dogs running off-leash on the public beaches and other areas.

Recognizing this need, a group of local residents spearheaded the effort to establish a dedicated dog park.

Early discussions and fundraising began around 2017, with a strong emphasis on creating a secure and well-maintained space that would cater to the island’s canine population.

The project gained traction through local community groups and online forums, quickly demonstrating considerable support.

The location was strategically chosen within the Tybee Island Beaches to maximize space and accessibility while minimizing disruption to other beachgoers.

Initial construction and landscaping were largely volunteer-driven, further showcasing the community’s commitment.

The dog park opened to the public in late 2018, quickly becoming a popular destination for dog owners seeking a safe and enjoyable environment for their pets.
