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.

Why this best time

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

13:45–15:45

Low tide walk

Why this best time

Visible beach100/100
Terrain fit96/100
Comfort92/100
Safety70/100

Good 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.

08:45–10:45

Paddleboard

Why this best time

Comfort78/100
Water stability75/100
Safety70/100
Shelter62/100

Paddleboarding conditions are poor because the E wind is too lively for easy paddling, the water is more exposed or less settled, and the tide is away from the stronger paddleboarding window.

13:45–15:45

Picnic

Why this best time

Rockpooling

Why this best time

Low tide100/100
Family fit100/100

Good 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

Tide suitability84/100
Comfort78/100
Terrain fit70/100

Fair sheltered choice today because the E wind still reaches it and the bay is only partly sheltered.

13:45–15:45

Sunset

Why this sunset score

A mixed sunset pick because the sunset angle is decent here, but not as strong as the western headlands. Cloud or rain may flatten the light.

Surf

Why this best time

Hazard notes

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

Indicative only, not a precise marine map or flood model.
