About

Ocean City: 31st St & Central Ave is a public beach access point in Ocean City, New Jersey, about a mile from the town center. It's a place to get onto the sand rather than a destination in itself, with parking on hand for visitors. Swimming isn't allowed at this access, so plan on walking, sitting or simply spending time by the shore instead of going in the water. A fee is charged. Summer brings the warmest conditions, with typical July highs around 85°F and lows near 71°F, while September cools to typical highs near 78°F. These are averages from a nearby weather station in Margate. Less than a mile away, the Boardwalk offers an easy addition to a beach visit.
