About

Middle Township: N Beach Dr is a public beach access point in Middle Township, New Jersey, about 2.8 miles from the town of Goshen. It offers a way down to the shore, but swimming is not allowed here, so plan on it as a spot for walking the beach or simply spending time by the water rather than going in. There is no fee to use the access. Typical averages from a nearby weather station at Belleplain State Forest put summer highs in the mid-80s, with July reaching about 88°F. Late spring and early fall are milder, with typical highs near 76°F in May and 80°F in September. For a change from the sand, East Creek Trail lies about 6.4 miles away. Nature Trail 1 and Nature Trail 2 are both about 8.4 miles out, and Champion Trail is just under 10 miles away.
