Saturday, June 27
Check-in 3pm • First look at the ocean • Pizza under the stars
Morning / Arrival
Unpack, pick your beds, and get settled. First order of business: walk down to the beach and see the ocean. 🌊
Afternoon
Swim, volleyball, snacks & drinks from home. Classic first-day-at-the-beach energy.
Dinner & Evening
The full night-one production: pizza, karaoke in the yard, then a movie on the projector. Best first night ever.
Evening
Watch the sunset from the beach — LBI sunsets are chef's kiss. Then grab ice cream at Barry's Do Me a Favor or The Woo Hoo in Beach Haven.
Ice Cream · Beach Haven
LBI's most beloved ice cream & food spot since 1987. 24 flavors, fish tacos, cheesesteaks — the locals' go-to for 39 seasons running.
Ice Cream · Beach Haven
The other LBI classic. Perfect post-sunset scoop stop in the heart of Beach Haven.
💡 Day 1 Tips
Sunday, June 28
Pancakes • Downtown LBI • Amusement park at night
Morning
The LBI breakfast institution. Stack on the pancakes — it's a beach trip, calories don't count.
Late Morning
Walk around Bay Village, shop, grab lunch, and make sure to hit the LBI Book Store. Back to the house/beach after.
Afternoon
Return to the house, hit the beach, and recharge before the main event tonight.
Evening — Do at Night!!
The classic LBI boardwalk amusement park — rides, games, boardwalk food. DO IT AT NIGHT when the lights are on and the vibe is unmatched.
Late Night
Popcorn bar + candy + beach movies. Think Soul Surfer, Aquamarine, or Mamma Mia!
Breakfast · Beach Haven
The LBI breakfast institution. Stacked pancakes, massive portions, total beach-town vibe. Lines form early on weekends — worth every minute.
🍿 Movie Night Picks
Monday, June 29
Lighthouse climb • Beach picnic • Mini golf • Ghost stories
Morning
Head to The Chicken or the Egg in Beach Haven for a proper sit-down breakfast, or cook pancakes and bagels at the house.
Late Morning
Drive up to Barnegat Light State Park at the north tip of the island and climb "Old Barney." 217 steps and the view from the top is incredible.
Midday
Head to the beach around 1pm. Pack sandwiches, chips, and fruit for a picnic lunch on the sand.
Afternoon
9 courses to choose from across LBI — competitive, chaotic, and the perfect crew activity.
Evening
Pick up dough, sauce, and toppings. Everyone makes their own — messier and more fun than ordering out.
Late Night
The beach at night is a different world. Bring a book, bring glow sticks, and maybe a ghost story or two.
Breakfast & Brunch · Beach Haven
"The Chegg" — LBI's go-to breakfast spot. Famous for their chicken and waffles, creative egg dishes, and lively beach-town atmosphere. A true LBI staple.
🗼 Old Barney Fun Facts
Tuesday, June 30
Final swim • Group photo • Ice cream • Until next time 🌊
Morning
Get bags mostly packed before the beach so you're not rushing later. Leave your suit out for one last swim.
One Last Time
Soak it all in. Swim, lay in the sun, take a million photos. This one counts double.
Lunch
Use up whatever food is left — sandwiches, chips, last night's pizza. No need to buy another meal out.
Before You Leave
Non-negotiable. Everyone, bags, no excuses. This is your proof you were here together.
Final Stop
One last scoop for the road. Then head home with sandy hair, tired legs, and the best memories.
see you next summer, LBI 🌊
The kind of trip you'll still be talking about at 26.
