Shore-tested gear for Ship Bottom beach days, fishing, and shore activities.
Ship Bottom is where Route 72 lands on LBI — the commercial hub every visitor passes through, so gear here covers what people forgot to pack before scattering to the island's quieter towns.
Tested at the wide, lifeguarded beach steps from the boulevard shops, and at the bay-side launch for crabbing and calm-water paddling near the causeway.
Each pick is matched to Ship Bottom’s shore scenarios. Tap through to Amazon for current pricing.
