Lighthouse Field and (Its Beach) - CLOSED

Lighthouse Field State Beach (including Its Beach) were closed to off leash use as of November 15, 2007. The City of Santa Cruz just ended its 30 year lease with the State. The State now manages this land and does not allow for off leash use. The City would like to purchase this property but does not like the 1.4 million dollar price tag. Between 10am and 4pm dogs are only allowed on the field area on leash (no dogs on the beach at all).
