It’s time to get ready for another summer on beautiful Long Beach Island! If you’re planning on hitting the sandy shores, then it’s important to be prepared. And, of course, that means getting your beach badges sorted out. But don’t worry, we’ve got all the information you need right here.
Different Types of Badges
First things first, let’s talk about the different types of badges available. There are daily badges, weekly badges, seasonal badges, and even senior badges – so make sure to choose the one that’s right for you. Prices can vary depending on the town, so it’s a good idea to do some research before you buy.
Six Towns, Six Badges
Speaking of towns, there are six municipalities on Long Beach Island, each with their own unique beach badge. So, make sure to locate the town your rental or home is in and purchase the badges for your desired beach. Don’t know the area well? No problem! Just shoot us an email and we’ll help you out.
Each Town & How To Buy
Now, when it comes to buying your beach badges, it’s important to note that you should NOT send any forms to us. We cannot process them for you. Instead, each town has their own process for selling beach badges. Some may require you to mail your form, physically bring it to their town hall or beach badge office by a certain date, or even download a mobile app to get a digital pass. So, be sure to check out the details and town forms on each site (we’ve included links for you below). And remember, only send forms and other requirements to the town you want to purchase beach badges in.
Okay, now let’s get down to business! Here are the pre-season informational link and purchase dates for each town:
