This is an amazing article. It lists the Shore towns that do not allow eating or drinking on the beach. Sea Isle City is one of the 7 towns profiled that does not allow eating or drinking on the beach.
Sea Isle City’s police department has jurisdiction over any beach-based lawlessness, but policing refreshments is apparently not on the radar screen. Lt. Dennis Felsing had no idea such a law existed in the city. “I’m a little taken aback,” Felsing said. “In my career, I don’t remember ever having written a ticket or seen one. People eat on the beach all the time.”
