Reach people every time they check the beach
Before anyone heads to the sand on Long Beach Island or in Ocean City, they check the fly report. Our fly, tide and weather reports update every 15 minutes, so visitors come back to them throughout the day. Your business shows up on the report page for your town, in front of people who are already deciding where to go.
Something for every kind of shore day
Some shore days are made for the beach, and some are made for everything else. On a hot July afternoon, readers want a happy hour on the bay or a table for dinner after the beach. On a rainy morning, they look for a boardwalk arcade, a shop on Washington Street, or a museum to explore. A placement on Flies on the Beach puts your business in their plans either way.
Local, seasonal, and part of the community
Flies on the Beach is local, with real time reports built town by town. Advertising here connects your business with the towns your customers love, from Asbury Park to the Wildwoods. Promote a summer opening, a holiday weekend, a festival, or a quiet season special when it matters most to your business.
