Last time I was there no and no. Sorry. If you go to Jalama and get outside of the campground limits from what I’ve heard, rangers don’t really care.

Officially, no to both questions. However, a fellow camper took his very small/well-behaved dog onto the beach on a leash and the lifeguards did not make an issue of it.

No dogs on beach and no dogs off leash on the grounds - including the day use area near the beach.
