    THE GOOD ----------------…read more+ Very clean beach (like most of the pristine, top Jersey Shore beaches) with no trash anywhere. Lots of shells though for you collectors out there. + Water was surprisingly somewhat clear! A real rarity for U.S. beaches. Was actually able to see through the water at times while standing on the edge of the beach. + Not extremely crowded like the mainland Jersey Shore beaches. + Beach entrance on every street perpendicular to the beach. + Plenty of parking on streets surrounding the beach - Bay Ave and streets with beach entrances have angled parking spaces. + LOTS .. and I mean LOTS of restaurants and stores line Bay Ave, which is only 2 blocks west of the beach. THE NOT SO GOOD ---------------------------- - Too many biting flies hovering around due to the recent westerly winds ... AND biting people! Although not an issue in prior years, it apparently was an issue for the latter part of the 2026 summer season. MIXED THOUGHTS --------------------------- = Nada. RANDOM OBSERVATIONS -------------------------------------- = Visited on Labor Day weekend and, surprisingly, the area wasn't overly crowded - probably due to the size of the island (and possibly the flies). Definitely seen a lot more crowded beaches and towns on the Jersey Shore. Beach Haven is definitely the "happening" town of the island, but the island is huge (45 min drive one way). = Beach badges can be purchased online ($10 as of summer 2026) or at the Beach Badge office on Centre St

    Living in Philly we always just head to South Jersey beaches. They're just right there, under an…read morehour away from the city. I've always wanted to head north to visit some of the beach towns I've heard so much about and revisit the ones that I haven't been to since I was a teen so we decided to give it a go before summer's end. I'm so glad we made the journey north! It's drastically different than the majority of South Jersey beaches, but it did remind me of our favorite this way, Strathmere. It's very quiet, peaceful and serene. It's a little farther away from center city, about 30 minutes longer, but well worth the drive! The beach itself was very clean and and has an extremely short walk to the water! The beach is free and parking is as well! It was also very easy to find street parking just a few feet from the entrance to the sand! There was no congestion or crowds, at all! You would never have thought it was just before a holiday weekend! The bay is stunning and provides for excellent sunset viewing! The town is sweet and doesn't have any typical shore stores which is sometimes nice! Many seafood restaurants as you imagine and those cute little icecream spots as well as bike rentals. We personally loved the vegan restaurant "Living On The Veg" and I did see a few yoga studios which looked awesome as well. Even some SUP yoga too! I can't wait to visit again next summer! Nice change of pace from the usual South Jersey spots most Philadelphians go to. We were big fans!

    Long Beach Island on the Jersey Shore is a wonderful spot for a weekend event if relatives of the…read morebirthday boy are in Virginia, New York, New Jersey & Pennsylvania. Twice we had a weekend at the same rental near the southern tip of the island. In the offseason beach rentals are much more reasonably priced & available for a weekend only if one chooses, The spot was great. The ocean was beautiful viewed through the sliding glass back doors. Walk straight out from the house to the sand dunes and the ocean. There were only houses in the area where we stayed. One had to drive up to Beach Haven for restaurants and shopping. The beach itself was the same gorgeous Atlantic Ocean that we are blessed to have in Virginia Beach, although the beach and dunes were wider. The houses were all new, possibly because of Superstorm Sandy that had once devastated the Jersey Shore. It really isn't a bad drive from Coastal Virginia, living as close as I do to the Chesapeake Bay Bridge Tunnel. My normal route up Highway 13 to Brooklyn only has one difference. Instead of taking the Jersey Turnpike, I exit on I-295 and continue to the Cherry Hill, NJ exit. Then I take the narrow backroads across New Jersey, which includes a huge, dark state park. This route leads to the southernmost bridge to Long Beach Island. I think the town you reach is called Surf City. It's an old style beach town with new construction interspersed because of Sandy. I'm always running late & wasn't enticed by their touristy attractions and businesses. To get to our rental head south on Long Beach Boulevard, past the commercialized portion of Beach Haven, until you're near where the road ends and the barrier island narrows. Always seeming to leave late I usually traveled the trip across New Jersey at night. Once it was snowing, making for a stressful drive alone with low visibility on the narrow, dark roads. Much to my surprise I was the first to reach the house. But even more of a surprise was that the door lock was frozen and I couldn't get it open. Passing through Beach Haven I remembered seeing a large restaurant & tavern. That seemed the perfect spot to eat & wait for my son & grandson to arrive. Spending the weekend on Long Beach Island with the beach covered in snow was a beautiful & exhilarating experience. For those of you who vacation south of our beautiful beach town, try a beach town to the north for a completely different experience. I love Long Beach Island on the Jersey Shore and look forward to another return visit.

    - Very nice beach where you don't have to walk a mile through the sand just to get to the water;…read morethere's also plenty of nearby street parking throughout town, and most of it is free - Beach Haven wasn't super crowded on the Saturday before Labor Day 2026, so it was pretty pleasant in terms of crowd levels - $10 admission for adults; kids under 12 are free; can purchase beach badges online or at the office on Centre street - SUPER PRO TIP (and something we REALLY wish we knew before trekking out to LBI): check the forecast for wind direction before you go! During our visit, the winds were blowing west, which brought over tons of greenhead biting flies from the nearby marshes. It completely ruined our experience because it literally felt like we were being eaten alive. We heard from other beachgoers that the flies had been particularly bad for a few weeks already. Apparently, this isn't a common occurrence, but when the conditions are right, it can be a REAL B. Definitely check the wind direction before making the trip!

    Wow. I LOVE IT HERE. I'm a gal who prefers a more quiet, peaceful beach experience. I spent the…read moreday at Avon By the Sea on a weekday in September and it was perfect. All parking is FREE. Can't complain about that! There's plenty of street parking right in front of the boardwalk as well as residential parking nearby. Since I visited after the summer season ended, I had no problem finding a spot at 12pm. If you're going during the season, I would suggest coming much earlier if you want to get a good spot closer to the beach. During the summer season (Memorial Day through Labor Day), beach badges are required from 9am-5pm on weekdays and 9am-5:30pm on weekends/holidays. It's $13 per person. Children ages 11 and under + active military and their dependents are free of charge. They don't accept credit/debit cards, so remember to bring CASH. The beach is beautiful - clear, blue water and clean, soft sand. The crowd is more mature and family-oriented. They do have a lot of rules (no alcohol/smoking/cannabis/canopies/tents/sound systems), but I don't mind. It's not rowdy here, so you'll have a peaceful experience. There are bathrooms, a playground area for children, and a boardwalk. The boardwalk is small, but charming. There are benches for you to sit, relax, and enjoy the ocean view. There aren't many restaurants, bars, games, or entertainment around. They have a snack/food pavilion, but I'd suggest driving a few miles away to Asbury Park or Long Branch for a better dining and night life scene. Seeeeee yaaaaaaaa at the shore!

Don't come here expecting to walk to a bunch of restaurants or bars -- it's more of a bring your own vibes kind of place. But they do have a snack shack, bathrooms, and the beach itself is really clean with clear water. Daily entry is $13, and there's lots of street parking, which is rare and amazing for beach towns. If you just want to chill, read, and enjoy the ocean without the crowds, this is the spot
