If you're planning on heading down to Point Pleasant this summer, make sure to leave the cigarettes and vapes at home!

Point Pleasant is an extremely wholesome and family-friendly beach town, so it makes sense that there are rules in place when it comes to smoking on the beach, boardwalk, etc.

Although there were already laws in place that prohibit smoking on the boardwalk and beach, there have been some new smoking bans put into effect for the town!

Before the expansion of the smoking bans was put into place, smoking was already illegal on the boardwalk, beaches, Point Pleasant Beach borough-owned buildings, and on local school properties.
