Are You Ready For Summer? Do You Have Your Beach Badges?🏖️
Can you believe that we are about 4 weeks from heading into the Memorial Day Holiday Weekend, the unofficial start to the summer season here at the Jersey Shore? Yes, we are just weeks away from hitting the beach once again and of course here in the Garden State when you "hit the beach" you need to have your "beach badges" so you can enjoy our beautiful beaches all summer long.
Of course for years now I have always had my badges for Ship Bottom, Long Beach Island and it's time again to get ours for the season. Do you have a favorite beach or do you switch it up where you go year after year? We have prices for you for all the beaches in Monmouth and Ocean County. Check to see what your beach is charging this year. The time is now to get ready for the upcoming summer season (Prices Provided By NJ.com) and don't forget the sunscreen!
