What to pack

What July feels like

July is peak boardwalk: the jitneys run full, Steel Pier glows all night, and the free beach concerts pull tens of thousands onto the sand. The ocean is swimmable rather than warm, and anyone who grew up here will tell you to wait a month.

Expect about 6 days with real rain — enough to notice, not enough to plan around. It’s sticky — light fabrics and an afternoon break earn their keep. about 10 afternoons top 90°.

Can you swim?

The ocean runs about 68° — brisk but swimmable.
