Purchase Your Permit

Explore hundreds of acres of beautiful open space. You can find your own peaceful spot for fishing, nature viewing, beach exploration, swimming, or a family adventure. Over-Sand Vehicle permits need to be purchased online in advance.

When picking up your stickers, please be sure to bring your e-mail confirmation, registration, and oversand vehicle, and OSV required driving tools: shovel, full spare tire, tire pressure gauge, board, tow rope, and jack. Staff will require all these materials for an OSV permit at time of pick up.

Your OSV permit does not guarantee access. Access is limited to nesting protected shorebirds and conditions of the beach itself including trail flooding, inundation and erosion. There are no refunds for OSV passes due to closures. Follow us on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter for regular beach updates. We appreciate your membership and helping us to protect this precious resource.

For rules & regulations, driving tips, and FAQs, please review the Oversand Vehicle Driving Guide.


We look forward to seeing you on the beach!
