Lighthouse Field on West Clff in Santa Cruz used to be a great off leash park but times have changed and now dogs are only allowed on leash at all times :( It was a great dog park, hopefully one day it will be back. Visit Friends of Lighthouse Field for more info about the fight to return Lighthouse Field to a dog friendly park!
