First...you can only go to the dog beach(south) area, which is the whole area along the pass and around to the back...the rules state 6ft leash only, must be on at all times and can't just run loose...with that said it has sort of become a free-for-all, but if you get caught I have seen the Fwc give tickets and they aren't cheap, not even a warning.
Dogs are not allowed off leash on Honeymoon Island. You will get a warning from the Park Rangers if seen. Long leashes are okay.
From what we saw, many people had their dogs off leash or on longer chains. Most people that did either of those were respectful about giving plenty of space!
