Crikvenica, July 16, 2023 – For eight years, Monty’s Dog Beach, the most famous Croatian dog beach brand, has been a popular attraction for locals and numerous tourists who come to the Adriatic destinations solely for this Mediterranean oasis for dogs and their owners.
After Crikvenica and Rab, Monty’s Dog Beach is expanding to the global market this summer by opening attractive beaches for our four-legged friends in Portorož and Los Angeles.
By introducing the Monty’s Dog Beach concept in Slovenia and California, spouses Igor and Ruby Montanari-Knez, express their pride in the recognised work and effort of their long-standing guests who always return to the destination, providing them with motivation for new entrepreneurial ventures:
“Obtaining a concession in Long Beach for Monty’s Dog Beach is unprecedented, and I am immensely proud to say that we are the first Croatians with such a beach bar concept in California. Monty’s Dog Beach Los Angeles is located on a beach with a beautiful sandy terrace, a large hospitality facility, and a huge parking lot with 800 parking spaces,” said Igor Montanari-Knez.
In parallel with the opening of the beach bar in distant California, the ribbon-cutting ceremony is being prepared in Portorož:
“Since many guests from Slovenia come to our beaches in Crikvenica and Rab with their pets, we came up with the idea of expansion, so Slovenia will also have its Monty’s Dog Beach that will not fall behind in any aspect compared to the existing ones. Our goal is to grow and develop our business and the quality of service year after year,” says Ruby Montanari-Knez, who is responsible for managing the facilities and designing an authentic offer for dog lovers that expands every summer.
In addition to enjoying dog beer, natural ice cream, and other dog treats, as well as engaging in beach activities in the dog park, Monty’s Dog Beach presents a unique concept during July and August called the Pawesome Summer Cinema, combining the simplicity of the Mediterranean lifestyle with innovation, offering a dog cinema on the beach.
Monty’s Dog Beach has set the standards of hospitality quality on the Croatian coast, providing dogs and their owners with a dog beach that has become a symbol of the Adriatic. By expanding into the global market, the local brand sets off to conquer the world.
