Local Night Clubs

Are there any 18 and over clubs in south New Jersey?

Are there any nightclubs that you can get into in at 18 in Atlantic City, Ocean City, Wildwood, Sea Isle City, Avalon, Cape May, or anywhere in South New Jersey?

The legal age to drink in New Jersey is 21. Night Clubs, particularly in the shore towns are very picky about keeping anyone under 21 out. Some places, offer under 21 Non-drinking nights but that is VERY RARE. Of course, fake ID s can get you into a lot of places (and the local lock up if you get caught). There are NO BARS in Ocean City, it is a “dry town” (except there is more booze consumed in houses there than I think anywhere else in the world). Somers Point is the club town just inland of OC..

I lived at the shore for years, and watched HUNDREDS of 18 year olds get banned, thrown out of or arrested in clubs. Casinos require you to be 21 to enter. No doubt, 18 year olds get in, but the risk is yours. Years back (right after I turned 21) the drinking age was lowered to 18 in NJ, but that only lasted about ten years.

It was really bad in my day, because after a year in Vietnam, you couldn’t come home and go drinking at age 20. But, pretty much all across the country, the drinking age (and hence the Club age) has settled at 21. Shore towns are party towns, and liquor licenses are worth millions of Dollars. So Clubs are not tolerant of the under 21crowd.
