A day at the beach in NJ is a scam, and pricing is intended to be a burden to people with limited income. Consider family of 4, I'm gonna call it $8 each to get on the beach, so $32, minimum of $25 to park, $57. Plus food and drinks, ok yeah bring your own... Call it $8 for ice, your at $65, $25 for your snacks, $90. Had to drive there $20 for gas, were at $110 and all we've done is reach the sand...
