Beach and boardwalk activities include surfing, kayaking, fishing, and windsurfing.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em><strong>Read More: <a href=\"https:\/\/thelocalgirl.com\/jerseyshore\/kohrs-frozen-custard-jersey-shore-nj\/\">Kohr\u2019s Frozen Custard: The Story Behind This Jersey Shore Staple<\/a><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<h3>Bay Front<\/h3>\n<p>This Lower Township beach in Cape May stretches from West Miami Avenue to Lincoln Boulevard and has free admission and also permits food. This space is peaceful and has a lot of wide open space.<\/p>\n<h3>Beesley&#8217;s Point<\/h3>\n<p>This spot is located in Great Egg Harbor Bay in Upper Township. The waters are calm here, and this is a popular kayaking spot.<\/p>\n<h3>Cape May State Point Park<\/h3>\n<div class=\"body body2\">\n<p>This state park is tranquil and quiet, with freshwater meadows. Locals can visit the Cape May Lighthouse, which does require a fee, and enjoy its free <a href=\"https:\/\/thelocalgirl.com\/jerseyshore\/jersey-shore-beaches-nj\/\">beach<\/a>. It&#8217;s a great spot to walk along the coast and spot some birds.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h3>Corson&#8217;s Inlet State Park | County Highway 619, Ocean City<\/h3>\n<p>Established in 1969, the shoreland was preserved from development, resulting in a beautiful beach. The area is known for <a href=\"https:\/\/thelocalgirl.com\/jerseyshore\/best-hiking-trails-jersey-shore-new-jersey\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">hiking<\/a>, boating, interpretive tours, saltwater fishing, and crabbing. Locals also canoe and kayak.<\/p>\n<h3>Jennifer Lane Bay Beach<\/h3>\n<p>This Stafford Township spot on Manahawkin Bay has no admission fee. During the summer, there&#8217;s also a lifeguard from 9AM to 5PM.<\/p>\n<h3>Keansburg Beach<\/h3>\n<p>These scenic beaches overlook the skyline of Lower Manhattan. Keansburg is also home to a fun amusement park and water park, making it a full day of <a href=\"https:\/\/thelocalgirl.com\/jerseyshore\/venue\/sun-outdoors\/\">outdoor<\/a> activities. Just be warned:\u00a0beaches have no lifeguards.<\/p>\n<h3>Leonardo + Ideal Beaches<\/h3>\n<p>These two Middletown Bay beaches are great spots for a chill afternoon. There aren&#8217;t restaurants or boardwalks in the area, so locals are not going to see the crowds that other beaches draw.<\/p>\n<h3>Strathmere<\/h3>\n<p>Great for surfing, fishing, and hiking, Strathmere Beach is a must-visit. The town is located in Upper Township in <a href=\"https:\/\/thelocalgirl.com\/jerseyshore\/cape-may-new-jersey-christmas-activities\/\">Cape May<\/a> County and is known for its grand Victorian houses.<\/p>\n<h3>Union Beach<\/h3>\n<p>Union Beach is in Monmouth County, and its salt marshes are a great place to see birds and go for walks along the bay shore.<\/p>\n<h3>Wildwood + North Wildwood<\/h3>\n<p>A visit here is practically a rite of passage for Jersey natives. The <a href=\"https:\/\/thelocalgirl.com\/jerseyshore\/wildwood-new-jersey-things-to-do\/\">Wildwood<\/a> beaches span over five miles. The spacious sand areas are a great space for beach sports like volleyball, frisbee throwing, soccer, and more. The boardwalk is one of the best in the state, boasting rides for adults and kids alike, as well as restaurants, bars, and shopping.<\/p>\n<h3>Wildwood Crest<\/h3>\n<p>Founded in 1910, Wildwood Crest is a borough in Cape May County. Swimming, sailing, and sunsets are what visitors experience at Wildwood Crest Beach. Locals are also able to jet ski, fish, and ride in sailboats. The atmosphere is peaceful and family-friendly.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em><strong>See More: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hobokengirl.com\/best-boardwalks-jersey-shore-new-jersey\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Best Jersey Shore Boardwalks to Visit This Summer<\/a><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<h3>William Morrow Beach<\/h3>\n<p>This beach is located in Somers Point, sprawling between Higbee and <a href=\"https:\/\/thelocalgirl.com\/jerseyshore\/molly-pitcher-history-new-jersey\/\">New Jersey<\/a> Avenues.
