THE MONTH OF JUNE brings out the best of the shore, but with smaller crowds!  As the weather gets nicer and the ocean warms up, you’ll have fun on the beach, fishing, or playing golf, and you’ll be able to get a table at your favorite restaurant, too!  If you can, spend some time here on the Island before the peak of the season!

Blue skies and puffy white clouds make it feel like summer!

FLOOD INSURANCE REVIEW:  If you need to take a look at your flood insurance coverage, be sure to attend a free seminar at the Stone Harbor Library from 1-3pm on Saturday, June 17^th.   From the latest regulations to foundation vents, David Sonner from Land and Sea Services Flood Mitigation and Sam Wierman from Ide Insurance Agency will cover a variety of topics.  Be sure to bring your flood elevation certificate for a free review.  For more information and to RSVP, click here:

MARY LEE has a friend!  Mary Lee, a 16-foot great white shark, was tagged off Massachusetts several years ago, and has frequented the waters off the Jersey coast many times since.  But recently a second tagged great white named Cisco, who measures just under 9 feet in length, was located in the waters off Rehoboth Beach, Delaware.  Both sharks’ travels have been documented on Facebook, as well as by traditional media.  While following their whereabouts is fascinating, they are both many miles offshore, and thus, far away from beachgoers.
