Sea Isle City Beaches Opening Up for "Regular Access" Saturday (Updated)
Hell yeah, let’s go.
A message from Sea Isle City mayor Leonard Desiderio:
Sea Isle City is opening its beaches to regular access effective Saturday morning, May 16. Beachgoers are expected to follow social distancing guidelines – staying 6-feet apart as much as possible. It’s critically important that everyone respects these guidelines so that all can enjoy Sea Isle’s greatest natural asset.
As a reminder, the Sea Isle City Beach Patrol does not go on duty this year until Saturday, May 23.
While much of our region and country works to re-open, we still have far to go. It has become clear that outdoor activity, done with respect for each other’s space, is beneficial not only to our residents’ physical health, but also their mental health.
This is one part of the gradual reopening of our City. In the coming days, I expect to have more news as we work with our county and state partners.
Governor Phil Murphy is expected to announce additional information regarding shore communities this afternoon. Hopefully the Surf Mall and Carousel Beach Bar are close to reopening, because I’m looking to buy a Bob Marley t-shirt and drink Heinekens.
Update:
Here’s the info from Murphy –
BREAKING: The Jersey Shore will be open in time for Memorial Day Weekend, with social distancing guidelines in place. The Shore is central to our Jersey identity and we want to ensure that families can safely enjoy it this summer. pic.twitter.com/BojwAZKih5
