For the first time in 36 years, Volusia County is allowing dogs on the beach.
The county celebrated the launch of its new dog-friendly beach pilot program with a ribbon-cutting ceremony on Saturday, Nov. 4. The 18-month program — which allows dogs on a 0.6 stretch of beach between Milsap Road and Rockefeller Drive in Ormond Beach — began on Nov. 1.
"The tide has changed in Volusia County," County Councilman Troy Kent said at the ceremony. "We are making history this week — the first time in 36 years — and Volusia County, you are getting your beach back."
