About Brant Beach
Brant Beach is a residential section of Long Beach Township on Long Beach Island in Ocean County, stretching along the Atlantic in the central-southern part of the island. It's a quieter, family-oriented stretch known for guarded bathing beaches and an oceanfront that stays calmer than the island's busier hubs. Swimming centers on the summer. Water temperature follows the open Atlantic — cool and bracing in the 60s°F in June, warming through July into the low-to-mid 70s°F by August and early September, then cooling through the fall. The beach faces open ocean, so check the live conditions and safety flag above before you get in.
