Sea Isle City To Reopen Beaches For Regular Access This Weekend

SEA ISLE CITY, N.J. (CBS) -- Sea Isle City's beaches are reopening just in time for the summer tourist season. The city says it's opening beaches to regular access on Saturday morning.

Mayor Leonard Desiderio is reminding everyone they have to comply with social distancing guidelines, keeping six feet apart when possible.

"While much of our region and country works to reopen, we still have far to go. It has become clear that outdoor activity, done with respect for each other's space, is beneficial not only to our residents' physical health, but also their mental health," Mayor Desiderio said.
