Beautiful local beach on the bay, tonight was my first time there. They also have free concerts during the summer. I look forward to taking my granddaughter there.

An absolute great night at Shelter Cove Beach in Toms River! The live band brought incredible energy that had the crowd dancing on the sand, and capping it off with a spectacular fireworks display water-side made it an unforgettable summer evening.

Shelter Cove Park is a nice, clean, bayside beach with a lot of space. It is very family oriented, with calm water and no waves. Plenty of parking and clean restrooms are available. There are also basketball and tennis courts, and soccer fields. Be sure to stop by!

Cozy & quiet beach on the bay away from the crazy ocean beach season. Went on a Friday afternoon and it was $7 per person. Age 62 and older can buy a lifetime beach pass for Shelter Cove and Ortley beach for $15. There were 2 volleyball nets set up, a parking lot, and convenient bathroom on site which I didn't use so I cannot describe it. There is not a concession stand on site so you will need to bring snacks and drinks, unless you drive out to the highway for lunch and go back. Mostly women with small children, but very well behaved. The swim area is roped off and there is a lifeguard on duty until 5. It's definitely a great place to relax by the water without the craziness of the ocean beach crowds and traffic.
