A Pet Friendly Paradise At Beautiful Bowen

Beautiful Bowen is located at the top of the Whitsundays, and did you know it is a paradise for dog owners?

Before you even enter Bowen and are greeted by the beautiful paradise that awaits, you will see the first of many pet friendly spots in town. At Bowen Visitor Information Centre, next to the big mango, there is a pet area for dogs to run around in. Perfect for pets that may have been in a car for a while. While your dogs are running around, visit the Big Mango, and the friendly volunteers at the Bowen Visitor Information Centre.

Bowen is home to many stunning beaches, and your pups can enjoy them too. Almost every beach in Bowen is dog friendly. You and your dogs can enjoy a leisurely stroll along the sands. For the hyper-active pups out there, Bowen has some off-leash areas for you. Queens Beach, Doughty Creek Mouth, Kings Beach, and Grays Bay are all off-leash areas; perfect for your furry friend to let loose and explore with immense freedom.

For park and nature lovers, Denison Park is a 24-hour off-leash park that offers a peaceful ambience and a great range of walking trails, perfect for indulging yourself in nature. Denison Park is also close to Bowen Foreshore, Flagstaff Hill Lookout, and Kings Beach.

With all this exploration, your furry companion may be getting thirsty by now. Luckily for you many cafés in Bowen are welcoming to your little friend, often placing dog bowls out for thirsty travellers.

At the end of the day, your dog is most possibly exhausted and lucky for you Bowen’s pet friendliness does not stop there. All caravan parks accept animals upon request, and a number of motels and even hotels have some pet-friendly rooms too. A perfect spot for a well-deserved good nights rest.
