Besides the lack of bathrooms, this beach is pretty supreme…read more I ran around for hours playing frisbee, a luxury at the jersey shore (as many of y'all are probably well-aware). This beach is decidedly sleepier than Ocean City, Sea Isle, and many non-LBI beaches, and most of its charm is from its inherent "coziness." The lifeguards were very kind and vigilant, making sure that the no-swimming zones were properly demarcated and that we could enjoy the offings of the beach. Free street parking and some mini golf and ice cream nearby. What more can I say? :)

Go all the way to the North end when you cannot go anymore and you are at the spot where leashed dogs are encouraged to play and enjoy the sand, ocean, and natural flora and fauna every day! In April, it was a very peaceful spot to dig some holes and admire the waves and stormy clouds. Dogs are also allowed on the other beach areas, but there are seasonal restrictions: "From October 1st to May 29th, dogs are allowed on the beach provided they are on a leash, not longer than 6 ft. Dog feces must be removed."

Had time to wander on a cold sunny winter's day during the PANDEMIC. Not really familiar with…read moreBrigantine, so I pretty much wandered around. Easy to do when nobody's around! I was actually looking for a place called Pepper Cove, but I can't seem to find it on the map. This beach is one of the few that allow cars, but it requires a permit. This time I just parked and walked in on the beach. Not very many people, but it was good to see a few people out in the distance with romping dogs. Happy dogs on the beach always makes ME happy. The beach sand itself is grayish, nor am I fan of tire tracks everywhere, but otherwise, an empty beach on a sunny day is four stars.

My sister lives in the area and suggested this as a nice beach walk. You have to drive through…read moremarshland (great birdwatching here if that's your thing), park in a tiny lot, and walk another 15 minutes down an old road to get to the beach. But you'll be rewarded with said birds (bald eagles, herons, and more), horseshoe crabs, and other wildlife. You'll likely have the place to yourself; we only saw two other wildlife photographers, in the parking lot, in the hours we spent here. There are the remains of a beachwall and a house that was removed about 20 years ago, I'm told. There used to be several houses on this beach--apparently those families are still upset about being displaced. You can see the old fireplace and see how the water is trying to reclaim their foundation. Some creative types have made sculptures out of driftwood and beach debris. But mostly it's just uninterrupted shoreline and nature that you can enjoy in solitude. Tip: the most convenient public restroom is back in Dorchester at the Wawa. I recommend a stop there before your visit to this beach.

Thompson's Beach is similar to Moore's Beach in that it's an isolated location without any homes…read morealong the beach, or anywhere nearby. To access this beach, you must drive to a public parking lot (free), and walk a gravel road through marsh for 0.7mi until you reach the beach. There is a lookout platform built adjacent to the parking lot, with didactic panels giving info on the wildlife. Once you reach the beach, it is very natural, and has some brick and stone fill material dumped there, to prevent erosion. There is also what looks like the ruins of an old building, but no signage to indicate exactly what it was. The beach is a decent size for spending time in the sun and sand, but it's very isolated so if any jellyfish sting or other emergency were to occur, you're a 0.7mi walk (or bike ride) to your car, and then several miles from that to get medical attention. No lifeguards anywhere nearby! So IMO, this beach is best explored in the off-season dressed warmly, with sneakers or hiking boots. Vineland is about a 30min drive from this beach. There are many preserves and hiking trails nearby, along with the Maurice River Township biking trails.

The beach is long and clean with views of the casinos of Atlantic City and the Ocean City-Longport bridge. It is part of the Malibu Beach Wildlife Management area, so very pretty and preserved. You have to carry out your trash, and "hold-it-in" until you get to another place with a bathroom, and parking is limited. But, it's a special place to romp around and be carefree. Be sure to bring baggies and fresh water and bowl.

First, I have seen this called "High Beach" as well as "Highs Beach" depending on the maps app I…read moreuse. But the road to it says "Highs" so likely that's correct. This is a good sized public beach on the Delaware Bay in Middle Township, Cape May County. The road remains paved to the end where the residences are. There are only a couple parking spots at the entrance to the beach, but the road is wide enough to allow parking along it. Like all of the small Middle Township bay beaches, this feels very remote and private. As with its neighbor beaches, you need to drive out through a stretch of marsh to get to it. There are homes on solid ground at the mouth of the road (by 47), and also as you get out at the beach, but the stretch in between is marshland. Marsh makes for great wildlife but also many bugs, so prep for that in warm months. The views up and down the bay coast are especially great at this spot, and the sunsets, of course, are spectacular.

My first trip dry docking with a camper and I could not have asked for anything better. The park staff was amazing. Checking in was a breeze. If you want lake access, it's a trade off with close bathroom access. You don't get both. So, if you had to go in the middle of the night, it was an 8th of a mile walk. I would just drive. However, I think I wouldn't have minded it if I had brought bikes. Bathrooms were clean and stocked. I plan on going again, for sure. Now the park does have another camp ground that is more RV friendly. That is water and electric, and you can bring dogs. We may try that one next. Belleplain is a must.

The road is fully paved to the beach because there are homes at the beach end of it. At one time the road appears to have gone even further but an older gentleman on the beach when I was there said the sea has washed away that extra piece of road, during storm surges. He mentioned that this beach is his favorite for fishing, although I saw people fishing at every bay beach except Cooks Beach. People fish the bay all year. The views of the coast are great at this location, and there is a nice chunk of beach to spend some quality hours hanging out. Kimbles and Cooks Beach are my top Middle Township bay beaches to visit! Definitely worth a trip! Like all of the small Middle Township bay beaches, this feels very remote and private.
