Grotto Beach is Hermanus's main Blue Flag beach, a wide sweep of white sand backed by mountains that has held Blue Flag status for over two decades. It is popular for swimming, and dogs are welcome on stretches away from the flagged swimming section, though they are kept off the main flagged area during peak hours, generally 09:00 to 18:00 in season. Owners are asked to leash dogs and clean up waste, and the beach falls under Overstrand Municipality's coastal management.
Note from SitnStay: Dogs are not permitted on the flagged Blue Flag section of the beach during peak-season hours (roughly 09:00-18:00); they are allowed on a leash on other stretches of the beach and outside those hours, and owners must dispose of waste properly rather than burying or discarding it.
