Moores Beach, Cumberland County, New Jersey

| | Just visited Moores Beach this past weekend (10/9/06). Moores Beach Road (aka 2 mile run) no longer takes you directly to the beach. You can drive in about 1/4 mile and park at a sandy lot right past the residences. The rest of the road is filled with shallow to knee-high puddles that you can maneuver with waterproof footwear though some have slightly slippery mud bottoms. Small fiddler crabs scatter upon your approach, egrets take flight and butterflies fill the bushes along the way. A wonderful sight of the sun on the bay when you reach the beach but |
