Guide
Good to know
Visit September for calm crowds
Early fall offers peaceful conditions with beautiful water and minimal crowding before summer season peaks.
Budget $15-18 per person
Day pass fees range from $15 to $18, making this notably pricier than nearby Manasquan and Bay Head beaches.
Expect rocky sand, not soft beach
The beach is artificial with pebbles and rocks mixed into the sand rather than fine sand alone.
Skip if you need facilities
The beach has only porta-potties with no showers, foot wash stations, or hand sanitizer available.
