As the days become warmer and kids start getting out of school, the Jersey Shore beaches are starting to get packed on a weekly and daily basis.

In nearly every New Jersey beachfront town, it’ll cost you whether you call them beach tags, badges or passes.

The highest price for a seasonal tag now goes for $150 with a few other towns now $100 or more.

The best deal? Well you can’t beat free. Atlantic City, Corson’s Inlet State Park, Sandy Hook, Wildwood, North Wildwood, Wildwood Crest, and Strathmere remain New Jersey’s free beaches with no badges required (though parking fees may apply).

Beach badges have begun selling quickly in towns online and in person. Most beaches offer daily, weekend/holiday and seasonal passes.

Here’s a list of beach badge prices for every Jersey Shore town for the 2022 season:
