Crest Beach Patrol Announce End of 2021 Season Coverage

The Wildwood Crest Beach Patrol has announced its late-season beach coverage for 2021.

All beaches will be open and protected by lifeguards, weather permitting, from 10 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. through Monday, Sept. 6 (Labor Day), and on the weekend following Labor Day (Saturday and Sunday, Sept. 11-12).

Full lifeguard coverage for the 2021 season will conclude on Sunday, Sept. 12. A response team will be available for emergency calls from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. on the weekends of Sept. 18-19 and Sept. 25-26.
