Heading to the shore this holiday weekend? Be ready to pay just to get on the sand at many New Jersey beaches.

Asbury Park also lets kids in free, with adults paying $10.

Sandy Hook doesn't charge for beach access, but parking is $20 per day.

In Long Branch, it's $9 for adults and $3 for teens. Cape May charges $10 for adults, while kids are free.

Deal is one of the priciest at $15 per visit. Its season pass jumped to $200 this year, the highest in the state.

The Wildwoods remains free, one reason USA Today named it among the top beaches in the country.
