The Warmies Dog Off Leash Area
120 The Strand, Newport, VIC
The Warmies Dog Off Leash Area is a sprawling coastal park in Newport, Victoria, characterized by its vast open spaces and unique industrial backdrop featuring the Newport Power Station. The park offers a mix of environments, including large grassy fields for running and a dedicated fenced-in section with wire mesh fencing. Facilities are basic but functional, featuring simple wooden benches and natural logs for seating. A highlight for many visitors is the direct access to the rocky shoreline, allowing dogs to explore the water's edge. The terrain is predominantly flat with a mix of grass, dirt, and rocky surfaces. While there are some mature trees providing patches of shade, many areas are quite exposed, with young trees recently planted. The atmosphere is rugged and expansive, offering plenty of room for high-energy dogs to roam. Visitors should be mindful of local wildlife, such as blue-tongued lizards, which inhabit the area's natural ground cover.

10 reviewsAbsolutely amazing experience. Families with kids and dogs off lead. Its wonderful when everyone can coexist and do the right thing. My dogs are simply exhausted after their visit. 🤩 …
Great place on the banks
Keep coming back!

No water.
Best dog park in the west
Great spot to have a rest along the bike trail/track - Bay Trail. Appears to be a popular area for fishing 🎣 Just watch out for swooping magpies! 😂 …
It’s a very industrial area and so it feels a little isolated and eery. I wouldn’t walk around here in the dark and I’d be very conscious of letting my dog off lead because there is likely a fair few snakes in the long grass. I couldn’t see any bins for dog poo bags either.
It's the best dog park in town!! Great people, great dogs!
