Title

Whoever spent thousands of dollars to launch a fireworks display over Ship Bottom Beach: incredible job and hats off to explaining to your spouse why the credit card statement exploded.

I heard a truck hit a utility pole but the way it’s shut down and traffic diverted to the beach road feels like this was a worse situation. Anyone know what happened??

Like the title says I'll be there in a couple weeks and want to make sure I don't miss anything. What are your absolute favorites? My place is in Barnegat Light and our old favorites are Kubel's, Harvey Cedars Shellfish Co., and Wally's (glad to see they bounced back quickly after that fire).

Does anyone know if you go to happy hour and get a wristband if you have to wait in line/pay cover if you plan to go back that night? Thanks in advance!

Hello everybody! Back again with another important question before I head down to LBI. Thanks to everyone who responded about my inquiry about Thundering Surf.

What is the best defense for the horse fly? Last year we TORN UP by these little guys no matter where we went.

What do you do to help combat them?

Hello I am a J1 student who comes from Turkey, and I really need a bicycle. I've been searching but couldn't find anything close by. Since I don't have a car, it's hard to reach. I am staying at Spray Beach. Are there any sellers by any chance?

Visiting for the Wknd from NYC. Everyone recommends Bird & Betty’s, went tonight and it was very young. Where is another bar where I would be able to socialize but maybe a little/lot more laid back and older - 30s-40s? Also what’s a good bar to watch the World Cup? Thanks 🙏🏼

My family and I go to LBI every summer and I was curious what the better antique stores are on the island or near it.

My daughter and I love vintage toys, happy meal toys, and Pokemon.

Thank you!

Hello! I am visiting LBI in July with my wife and two year old. I was wondering if it’s worth it to bring my toddler to the water park for the prices. Is the toddler area any good?
