Staying at the resort gives guests access to the beach club, where attendants set up chairs and umbrellas, though guests are encouraged to bring their own beach towels. There is even a seasonal, heated pool to try if the beach gets too sandy. Icona Resorts has a few passes available for non-guests, but make sure to visit the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.icona.com\/diamond-beach\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">website<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to learn more.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"isSelectedEnd\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.longbeachtownship.com\/public-works\/\">Holgate Beach<\/a> | 7910 Long Beach Boulevard, Long Beach Township<\/h3>\n<p>Located at the southern end of Long Beach Island, Holgate Beach feels a bit more tucked away than the busier LBI towns. This stretch is ideal for visitors looking for a quieter beach day with ocean views, soft sand, and a more residential feel. Since parts of the area are near protected wildlife spaces, beachgoers should check access rules and seasonal updates before visiting.<\/p>\n<h3><a href=\"https:\/\/dep.nj.gov\/njfw\/wildlife\/higbee-beach-wildlife-management-area\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Higbee Beach<\/a> | 1 Higbees Beach Road, Cape May<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Higbee Beach is a Department of Environmental Protection Wildlife Management Area because it is considered an important stop for millions of birds migrating each year. This beach has amazing bird-watching at any time of year.

The beach itself is great and quiet, which may be, in part, because the town is dry (meaning no alcohol is sold within town limits). The daily beach badge costs $12.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><a href=\"https:\/\/publicbeachaccess.com\/beach\/pearl-beach-cape-may-point-new-jersey\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Pearl Beach<\/a> | 205 West Central Avenue, Cape May Point<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Visitors agree that Pearl Beach is one of their favorite beaches in New Jersey. With its beautiful, sandy shores, guests are going to experience one of the quietest beaches in Cape May. Technically, it\u2019s not a private beach, but it definitely seems like one of New Jersey\u2019s best-kept secrets. There are lifeguards, and swimming is allowed on this stretch of beach.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"isSelectedEnd\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nps.gov\/gate\/planyourvisit\/sandy-hook.htm\">Sandy Hook<\/a> | 100 Hartshorne Drive, Highlands<\/h3>\n<p>Part of Gateway National Recreation Area, Sandy Hook is a scenic escape for anyone who wants a quieter beach day with a little extra nature mixed in.

Beach access is free, but there is typically a seasonal parking fee, so make sure to check before heading out.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"isSelectedEnd\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.seagirt-nj.gov\/beach\">Sea Girt Beach<\/a> | 2 Ocean Avenue North, Sea Girt<\/h3>\n<p>Sea Girt Beach has that classic, polished Jersey Shore feel without the boardwalk chaos. The beach and boardwalk are clean, quiet, and residential, making it a favorite for anyone looking for a slower beach day with ocean views and plenty of room to stroll. Visitors should check seasonal beach badge details before planning a summer trip.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"isSelectedEnd\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.springlake.org\/\">Spring Lake Beach<\/a> | 410 Ocean Avenue North, Spring Lake<\/h3>\n<p>Spring Lake Beach is one of the calmer, more picturesque beaches along the Jersey Shore. With two miles of sandy shoreline, a peaceful boardwalk, and a town filled with historic homes and tree-lined streets, it\u2019s an easy pick for anyone craving a more refined beach day. It can still draw a crowd in peak season, but the overall vibe is much more laid-back than some of its neighboring shore towns.<\/p>\n<h3><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tripadvisor.com\/Attraction_Review-g3948623-d103992-Reviews-Sunset_Beach-Lower_Township_Cape_May_County_New_Jersey.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Sunset Beach<\/a> | 502 Sunset Boulevard, Cape May<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A top spot to watch the sunset, this beach is located where Delaware Bay meets the Atlantic Ocean.
