Directions

Coastal context

This coast is treated as a broad tidal flat, so low tide opens a lot more walkable ground but the incoming tide matters more. South and east Jersey are treated as lower-lying with larger visible tidal change.

Excellent dog-walk option. This is one of the more practical dog-walk choices. The shoreline has usable room now.

Gust comfort100/100

Family conditions are good overall. This is one of the easier family picks. Access, parking, or facilities are more limited. Wind comfort matters here.

15:45–17:45

Low tide walk

Why this best time

Visible beach100/100
Gust comfort99/100
Terrain fit96/100
Comfort75/100

Excellent low-tide walk because the tide is low enough to open a proper stretch of shore and the shoreline shape suits a longer low-water walk. The falling tide should open a little more room.

13:45–15:45

Paddleboard

Why this best time

Gust comfort100/100
Tide timing85/100
Water stability75/100
Comfort75/100

Paddleboarding conditions are good because the NW wind is manageable but worth watching, the water is more exposed or less settled, and there should be enough useful water around the launch window.

17:45–19:45

Picnic

Why this best time

Gust comfort100/100

Good picnic option. The weather makes it a more mixed picnic call. Facilities and easy set-up are more limited here.

Rockpooling

Why this best time

Low tide100/100
Family fit100/100
Gust comfort99/100
Terrain fit92/100

Excellent rockpooling option because low water is exposing more shore and the shoreline has enough rock, stone, or mixed ground to make pools more likely.

Sheltered today

Why this best time

Gust comfort100/100
Tide suitability100/100
Comfort75/100
Wind comfort74/100

Good sheltered choice today because it has some protection from the NW wind and the bay is only partly sheltered.

16:45–18:45

Sunset

Why this sunset score

A mixed sunset pick because the sunset angle is decent here, but not as strong as the western headlands. Some cloud could still make the light interesting.

Surf

Why this best time

Gust comfort100/100
Wind quality78/100
Comfort75/100
Safety70/100

Surf setup is fair because the NW wind is lining up cleanly, this beach is not one of the stronger surf-exposed spots, and the tide is away from the better surf window.

Swim

Why this best time

Tide timing100/100
Gust comfort100/100
Wind comfort74/100

Good swim option because the tide lines up well for swimming and it stays relatively comfortable in the NW wind.

Hazard notes

Rocks appear at lower water and the usable space changes quickly. A rising tide reduces the beach faster than expected.
