White Horse Beach Tradition

3rd of July on White Horse Beach

One of the best ways to celebrate America’s birthday is to start a day early on White Horse Beach. The 3rd of July has become the day for beach fires (permit required) and “unofficial” fireworks. What a fun and exciting way to relax and enjoy the celebration.

A cool story (may not be exactly accurate) to share is that some of the first Americans lit Bonfires on White Horse Beach in the year 1777 to celebrate their independence.
