2.) Ventnor City

3.) Margate

4.) Longport

5.) Ocean City

6.) Sea Isle City

7.) Avalon

The good news is most towns don't require beach tags for children 12 and under. In Cape May, 12-year-olds are still required to have one. It's 11 and younger that are free.

If you're not interested in paying for beach tags, you can still visit Atlantic City, Corson's Inlet, Strathmere, and the Wildwoods. If those destinations don't interest you, we recommend scoring your beach tags for the 2023 season sooner rather than later.
