The beach ban operates until October
DOG bans are coming into force on some beaches in East Yorkshire ready for the summer season.
Dogs will not be allowed on some beaches between Monday, May 1 and Saturday, September 30.
The annual exclusion, enforced by East Riding of Yorkshire Council, is put in place so families and other visitors enjoy the seaside without being bothered by nuisance dogs or fouling. The control of dogs is also one of the requirements of the Blue Flag Award scheme, which marks the best bathing beaches. Council officers will carry out patrols and owners found breaking the rules will get a £75 penalty.
