Dogs

During the quieter periods between 1 October and 31 March, 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 April and 30 September 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 kindest 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 10 am and 6 pm and is dog-friendly outside of these hours and between 1 September and 30 June when dogs are permitted on the beach.
