There are other state documents that can be used in place of drivers license.
Also, you don't need to drive to have a driver's lice se but it is the most common document.

What drives me nuts about this is that some beaches, like Cape May, literally wouldn't exist without taxpayer dollars paying for the Army Corp of Engineers to rebuild the beach as it erodes. So the beach is only there because I paid my taxes, and then those motherfuckers want to double dip and charge me for a beach badge? No thanks.
Compare this with Hawaii, where every beach is required to be legally open to the public and doesn't cost anything to access. Plus, the beaches are way better. It's Hawaii.

Anyone from NY or Pennsylvania should pay for beach fees & double on parking. NJ taxpayers should have free beach passes & no parking fees.

River palm edgewater, and much lesser known but amazing Prime and Beyond in fort Lee. Run by Koreans, it's also a butcher shop. A fantastic place to get an amazing steak and some kimchi fried rice.

Yes, but I believe it’s by each state law, and they vary, that you’re allowed on beaches,( and waterways?) to high tide mark. Murphy signed this in 2019 giving public access.
Public Rights under the Public Trust Doctrine
The Pubic Trust Doctrine provides that public rights to tidal waterways and their shores in the state are held by the state in trust for the benefit of all of the people. Further, it establishes the right of the public to fully utilize these lands and waters for a variety of public activities.…

You are not the only one. I used to work at the fee booth at Sandy Hook, and folks would try to use there State Park Pass. I got yelled at a number of times because people refused to understand that they couldn’t use it there since we were operated by 2 different organizations.

They have yet to make an announcement weather they will charge entrance fees yet. As of right now they are currently selling state park passes. Which are for all state parks in Jersey. Last year they announced the entrance was free around May, right before Memorial Day. The beach clean up idea is great, but every beach is owned by different people, so it you would only have access to one beach in particular.

If you go to the Grand Canyon, you pay $30 at a gate to get to see the canyon, same for Yellowstone, Glacier, Zion, Arches, Volcano, or crater lake. If you want to hike trails in Michigan and want to use a trailhead on State land, your gonna need a recreation pass on your car if you could get a ticket. California has similar laws as does Wisconsin. Fees go to keeping trash cans emptied and toilet paper stocked. Fun Fact, you can d $80 or and you can get a card that gets you in all year and if you’re a military veteran you get a free lifetime pass
