Day trip to the beach possible?

[Anonymous]

Is there a daily fee to use the beaches at Bethany or Sandy Point North Beach?

As a parent now, I can truly appreciate how hard that trip must have been for my mom. She and my dad divorced so he wasn't a part of these trips. But the drive to the beach, all day watching 2 kids in the sun, I'm sure I fought with my brother, and then to drive home.

It's a memory I'm determined to create for my kids once they're just a little bit older.

I love this. Good for your mom!
