Bradley Beach beach and boardwalk
Two beach badges are available to guests. Please return them when you leave. The day rate to visit the beach is $12 per adult. You can walk to the beach from the house. It’s 5 blocks and exactly a half mile. There are sidewalks and there is a beach cart in the basement (along with any other beach equipment you need -chairs, umbrella, boogie boards). The boardwalk has a food truck or two, mini golf, well maintained bathrooms and beach badge booths. Lifeguards are on duty Memorial Day-Labor Day, 9am-5pm.
