Great beaches for a day trip

What beaches to go to from Union, Essex, and Morris Counties New Jersey

By Julie Lepore, Macaroni Kid Summit / Short Hills / SOMA publisher July 8, 2020


Beaches are open to the public and the open air quality is definitely appealing during these times! Here are a few nearby beaches you can take a day trip to. To buy beach passes for the day, check out VIPLY and make sure to do it in advance as they have been selling out. Island Beach State Park and Sandy Hook are state and national parks so they do not require passes in advance but you should try to arrive early because they close once they reach capacity.

Here are some to check out!


Point Pleasant

Sandy Hook (FYI, Lot G is the nude beach!)

Sea Isle City

Avon-by-the-Sea

Asbury

Bradley Beach

Ocean Grove

Island Beach State Park

Manasquan

Seven Presidents

Spring Lake

Union Beach in Keyport


This list is a work in progress! Know of any I can add? Let me know at juliel@macaronikid.com
