Dogs

From 14 September 2025 to April 30 2026 (excluding Easter), dogs are welcome in the harbour and village of St Michael’s Mount. This does not include the castle, summit, castle grounds, castle paths, Steward's House, Harbour Loft, shops or garden.

When can I bring my dog?

Dogs (and other pets) and are not permitted to visit the island during the busier season between 1 May and 11 September 2026 inclusive. We know that this will disappoint some visitors, however with higher footfall, limitations on space and few shaded areas on hot days, we feel this is the safest thing to do.

What about assistance dogs?

Assistance Dogs are permitted to visit St Michael's Mount, the harbour, café, Harbour Loft, shops, village, castle and the garden at all times throughout the year when we are open.

Can my dog go on Marazion Beach?

Marazion beach has a dog ban from 1 July until 31 August between 10am and 6pm and is dog-friendly outside of these hours and between 1 September and 30 June when dogs are permitted on the beach.
