Below are the most up-to-date prices for beach badges (or beach tags), sourced directly from the town's website. If there is an error or incomplete information or if your beach is missing, please use the contact form below. Many (as of April 29) still offer pre-season pricing, so book ahead if you want to save.
Please visit each linked website to learn more about the badges, where to order them and pick them up, and any restrictions. There is no universal badge for the Jersey Shore, so you will want to make sure you are purchasing the right badge.
Note: Most towns let kids on the beach for free and offer discounts or free badges to seniors and veterans, so check the specifics on what the age range or requirements are.
