Beaches
Of course one of the main reasons for visiting the Jersey Shore is the beautiful, clean beaches. Beaches along the Jersey Shore are some of the best in the world and each town offers a different beach experience from the beach bars in Atlantic City to volleyball, fishing, surfing, kayaking, windsurfing and more.
All of the oceanfront beaches from Brigantine to Cape May except Atlantic City, North Wildwood, Wildwood and Wildwood Crest require beach badges in the summer. Most towns offer a discount if badges are purchased before June 1. Badges can be purchased for the day, week or season.
Each town has its own regulations regarding what activities are permitted on its beaches. Some activities are permitted only at certain beaches within the town. It's best to check with lifeguards or the local police department especially in the summer when the beaches are crowded..
Chairs and umbrellas are available for rent in Atlantic City, Ocean City, Wildwood and Cape May.
Most towns provide restrooms and water fountains on or near the most popular beaches and some have showers right on the beach or boardwalk.
Enjoy the beach and don't forget the sunscreen!
