Catch fireworks on the beach twice this weekend!
See Avalon & Stone Harbor July 4th lineups are below!
TWO NIGHTS OF FIREWORKS FUN!
A huge lineup of July 4th activities is on tap this
weekend, including two nights of fireworks. Stone Harbor's
fireworks show takes place Friday evening, and Avalon's Saturday
evening. See below for the full weekend lineup for each
town!
OFFSHORE FISHING - IT'S
HOT! Sport fishing reports indicate that catches of
yellowfin and bluefin tuna are on fire in canyon waters.
Many dockside and social media reports show anglers showing off
their catches. Tuna fishing is often good at this time of
year, but as always, subject to change caused by winds or
storms. Inshore, flounder fishing has been good, again
with numerous dockside and social media reports highlighting
exceptional catches.
STRONG EL NINO, FEWER HURRICANES: Meteorologist Joe
Martucci explains why a strong El Nino in the Pacific this fall
could mean fewer Hurricanes in the Atlantic this season.
El Nino is a warmer-than-average equatorial sea surface
temperature in the Equatorial Pacific. Those warmer
temperatures lead to stronger trade winds, which churn Atlantic
waters more than normal, bringing cooler water to the surface,
dampening Hurricane activity.

"Billy
Joel" rocks the piano while "Elton John" works the crowd
at Surfside Park at last week's concert. Missed the show?
See below for more music options this summer!
GOTTA DO IT: SONGS BY THE SEA!
Good music, right next to the ocean! Gotta do it!
Last Thursday, "Billy Joel" and "Elton John" rocked Surfside
Park to a full crowd! The Yellow Brick Joel tribute band
featuring David Clarke as Bill Joel and Bill Connors as Elton
John played to a packed lawn and full boardwalk, as concert
goers of all ages enjoyed favorite songs from two icons.
There are many options to enjoy live music - free--by the sea!
This week, catch the American Soul Band at Surfside Park,
Marnie's Jubilee Jam at Water Tower Plaza, and the Soul Cruisers
at the Cape-May Lewes Ferry Terminal! See my events list
below. (Back by popular demand, my "Gotta Do It" list will
appear each week during the summer season!)
