Many boardwalk businesses do not have an outdoor seating area which would mean that they are could be take-out only.
The beaches are open to sit and enjoy! The weather for this weekend is a bit cloudy and isn’t looking like beach weather but it’s nice to have the option to relax.
When your done eating be sure to put your trash in the cans and keep the trash out of the street.
Bars are open for drinks to-go. This is something very new. If you want the full article click HEREbut the gist is that now you can get drinks from your favorite bar and take it home to drink it.
Mayor Pete Byron used his executive power to close Pacific Avenue to traffic to help businesses be able to use the Right-of-Way in front of their stores for dining tables. From Schellenger Ave to Spicer Ave the streets are closed creating a “Pacific Avenue Mall.” You can watch a video tour of this mall below.
Motels and Hotels ARE open! Give your favorite spot a call and see if they have any rooms open. Pools will be allowed to open on June 22nd (Click the link below for more details)
