•Beach races and triathlons close their courses early — spectators driving in on race morning should approach from outside the course loop.
•Fishing tournaments concentrate at the marina for weigh-ins, usually late afternoon; that's the spectacle worth timing a visit around.
•For beach volleyball and surf contests, the action moves with the tide and heats run all day — check the event schedule board on the sand rather than the website's start time.
•Parking in Ocean Grove: Free street parking throughout town. Can be challenging on summer weekends.
