We moved from Staten Island and lived on 6th street Surf city LBI for a while back in the late 70s. It has changed so much. Went to junior H.S. in Manahawkin when we lived there on LBI. I remember Ron Jon surf shop was a little building back than. In the winter it was very isolated feeling.....not many people lived there all year.
I love LBI I have a waterfront summer house on Mystic Island. My beach house is a 10 minute drive to LBI. Mystic Island has beautiful waterfront homes like LBI
@@destinations9899 You would love Mystic Island it's a hidden gem of the Jersey Shore. I made lots of videos there look them up on my TH-cam channel. It's truly a paradise there. We even have a Stewarts Drive-in restaurant and it's on the water so you can either drive or dock your boat in back.
@@Nurse4Life255 it is quite expensive actually, especially since the prices shot up during the pandemic. prices almost doubled for houses… my friends paid 9000 dollars a week to rent an okay house.
Hey guys, so its like1500 for a little cottage house built in the 1930 or so, i mean split that up btw 2 or 3 adults its not THAT much. To me i guess the price is worth it for the location
My family has owned homes on that island since the 1930s. Have a street named for my family (Mom's side) Bought mine in Beach Haven in 2005. I remember that little building that was Ron Jon's Hatch Cover Furniture shop. Sold surfboards and t-shirts in the back. I still have some of the original pocket tees before the modern Ron Jon logo. LBI, greatest place in the world.
Yes I hear you. It’s more of a video on a day trip idea because you have the bay n the beach n there’s a basketball n pickle ball then there’s bathrooms all in one spot…. So that’s a great spot to do a day trip. At least I never claimed to be a expert on the area… I should change the title
It cost too much to vacation there, Three families need to pool there money together to rent a place for one week, If you don't pick up groceries at shop rite on the way over, Your looking at spending 200 hundred dollars a day for food, 🙄 , alcohol drinks are expensive there a imported beer is $15 Long Island iced teas 25, This place is becoming seaside without snooki, Slew side Too crowded too expensive stay away.

I don’t see your code on mystic island.
@@destinations9899 What do you mean code?
lol I’m sorry that must have been auto correct. I meant video.
Grew up on LBI. The family sold the home in 2014-- I couldn't afford a hotel room in my childhood beach town, let alone a house.
Renting isn’t that expensive
@@Nurse4Life255 define not that expensive. $3000 for a week is not cheap.

Horrible video…you knew nothing about this place. You kept saying I guess I guess, you had no real info.
ok you are entitled to you opinion. thanks for letting me know what you think. also I never claimed to be “an expert tour guide” on the area. lol
