Excellent beach for running! It's a bit of a hike up the dune and then back down to get to the beach, but so worth it. It's a very long expanse of coastline, so you can usually get pretty far away from people if you need to. There are a lot of horses that ride along this beach, so be aware you might encounter them. There are beautiful views from the top of the dune, and a nice, large parking lot with flush restrooms.
PROS
Great beach for off-leash There's such a long expanse of coastline here you can really keep away from other people and dogs, even when its busy
Great views You can see Haystack Rock just fine from here on a non-foggy day!
Restrooms In busy coastal cities sometimes the free restrooms are hard to find
WATCH OUT Horses If your dog doesn't like horses, definitely not the place for you
Uphill hiking required You have to get up
the sand dune in order to go back down to get to the beach. It's not a horrible hike, but not a nice walk/path either
High tide comes up to the end of the dune You won't be able to get to much beach area at high tide.
