This was the final stop on our two day Jersey Shore adventure, which also included Mandy and Lexi's first night in a hotel, and beaches in Point Pleasant Beach and Bay Head. It was an unbelievably warm early November day. The beach got up to 78 degrees, while it was over 80 inland. There was a warm breeze, but it wasn't as windy as the day before. This beach was more dog-friendly than the others. There is a doggie waste station by the access point, with a poop bag dispenser. In the summer months (May 15th through October 1st) dogs are allowed between sunrise and 10AM, and from 6PM to sunset. In the off-season, they are allowed anytime, and are also allowed to be off-leash during the off-season as well! Since this was actually our second beach visit of the day, we kept the walk on the shorter side, but also took a brief detour to check out the town. Back at the beach, a dog with a dyed orange head arrived. Since the dogs could be off-leash, they had a new friend to play with. Even after that dog left, Mandy and Lexi ran around off-leash and did some of their patented doggie wrestling that they used to do frequently when they were younger! It was fun seeing them run around freely on a beautiful beach! This was a wonderful way to end our trip on a summer-like afternoon in November!

This was a brief walk through "downtown" Mantoloking (basically walking down Downer Avenue). We walked over to the bay, before returning to the beach.
