Long Beach Island, which is an 18 mile long barrier island located off the southern tip of New Jersey, helped celebrate America’s birthday despite having suffered a direct hit from Superstorm Sandy only a few month earlier. Long Beach Island or “LBI” as it is known has been a favorite vacation destination for families for over 200 years and Summer 2013 on Long Beach Island looks to be no different! July 4th 2013 on Long Beach Island New Jersey was a fun time for all who participated!

  • Great beach weather

Hurricane Sandy and Long Beach Island

While LBI has made magnificent strides towards a full recovery, sadly not all LBI homeowners are back int heir houses. There are still many homes that are not habitable for Summer 2013 and there are many homeowners who are under construction on a new home in preparation for Summer 2014. Despite these cases, most would have to agree that LBI is up and running and OPEN FOR BUSINESS! July 4th 2013 on Long Beach Island New Jersey showed just how far LBI has come since Sandy and once the last homes are renovated or rebuilt, Long Beach Island will be better than ever!

July 4th 2013 on Long Beach Island New Jersey has come and gone but there is still a lot of Summer to enjoy and LBI offers everything you need for a great vacation. There are summer rentals available and just about every store, restaurant and attraction is open for business. As tragic as Superstorm storm was, the banding together of  LBI locals, vacationers and workers to overcome the hardship showed how much we all have in common and how we can all work together to achieve a common goal. In the end, these are the traits America was founded upon so this, more than any other 4th of July before on LBI, was perhaps the most fitting of all.
