beach badges

see, i told you i was going to sneak in another post before we move!

i know you are all psyched for the upcoming beach season.  also known as summer.

if you are not in jersey this post probably won't apply to you, because your state is awesome and doesn't charge it's taxpaying beach-goers $7 a person, a day.

did you know, if you go enough times during the season, it may be worth the small fee to purchase a season pass?!



i've always thought the passes would be crazy expensive. everything else in jersey is out of control, why would the passes be any different.  right?!? 

some of the municipalities have a website where you can fill out a form and send it in, with payment, to get your passes.  

others, you can just purchase at the beach.



for some municipalities, if you buy passes before memorial day they may be a little bit cheaper.  i'm only talking $10 cheaper. but still, i'll take it!

i've provided you with a list of the more popular beaches i know most people hit up.


sandy hook with clothes:  $5 a day or $50 for season pass.  

ocean grove: $7 a day or $70 for the season.

belmar:  732-681-3700  $7 daily or $50 season
