Summer is coming.

One signal is that many municipalities along the Jersey Shore have already published their pricing for badges to access their beaches in 2024.

And if you plan to visit the same beach several times this summer, you can save some money by purchasing a seasonal badge right now, instead of waiting until the summer season arrives.

Below is a list of 2024 badge prices for some of the most visited shore towns in the state.

A number of municipalities have not yet announced their daily/weekly prices for the upcoming summer. We will update this page as more towns release their pricing for 2024.

Accessing the sand is free in Atlantic City, the Wildwoods and Strathmere.
