Lower Township: Sandalwood Rd & Shore Dr
About
Lower Township: Sandalwood Rd & Shore Dr is a public beach access point in New Jersey, about 1.3 miles from the town of Villas. It serves as a simple way onto the sand rather than a full-service swimming beach. Swimming is not allowed here, and there is no fee to use the access. Late summer and early fall tend to be the most comfortable times for a beach walk. Typical averages from a nearby weather station in Cape May show September highs around 79°F with lows near 62°F, while July highs reach about 86°F. For time on foot inland, the NJ State Long Trail lies about 4.9 miles away, and the Blue Trail is roughly 5 miles off.
