Isn't the beach public property? Why do they insist on charging $10pp to get on?
(It's that way to keep out-of-towners out. You could buy a season pass per person at a discounted rate, but what is actually offered beach side to want go there for the day even at a discounted rate.)
AFAIK every town that has access to the ocean has to provide free access.. is this true?
--- Not true.
Long Beach just is not the same as the "old days". Pitty.
It's ridiculous. I think Westhampton Beach is even worse, the beach is off limits to non-residents at any price. I go to the beach to get away from this overzealous BS. Thats why I go to Fire Island.
not true...pt. lookout, lido, malibu, jones...they all charge.
tobay, gilgo, robert moses etc...
I don't think I can name one beach that IS free on LI.
