New Jersey Beaches and Beach Tag Information 2024

First published in 2013. This post with New Jersey Beaches and beach tag information is updated every year with the current year’s information.

Every year our listing of New Jersey Beaches and Beach Tag information ranks as one of our top posts. Readers are searching for where the cheapest New Jersey beaches are, what does it cost for a beach tag near me, and where are there free beaches in New Jersey. If you are like them you also want to know what is the parking situation at my beach or do my kids need a beach tag.

We have those answers for you! Every year, we research each New Jersey beach to find out the current beach tag prices, where to buy your tags, whether or not your kids need tags, where to park and more.

Below is a list of New Jersey beaches by county and information about their Beach Badges/Tags. (Yes, this is an ongoing list. If you have beaches we should add please email them to JerseyFamilyFun). This list will be updated often beginning in January and into the summer months. We are currently updating for 2024.

Buying New Jersey Beach Tags is easier than ever.

Gone are the days when the only way to get NJ beach tags was by standing in long lines or trying to get to the municipal buildings during regular business hours. Many beach offices are not selling tags in the traditional way. They are either offering window pick up, mail orders, or online orders through an app. As always look to us as your source for the best information on New Jersey beach tags.

NJ beach tags

Know before you go! If there are any beach closings the NJDEP website will let you know.

Beach tags are required on most New Jersey beaches beginning Memorial Day weekend; that’s generally when lifeguards begin their seasonal duty. As always it’s best to swim near a lifeguard and only when lifeguards are on duty. Our listings below will give you the dates as we know them.


Many towns also offer discounts for military and seniors. Many offer discounts on New Jersey beach tags for buying badges BEFORE the summer season starts.
