Meet YOUR REALTOR Monday August 10, 2026
Are the dog days of summer here? I think so.
While people always say to head to the beach to beat the heat, it's been hot even here on LBI. We've been taking the dogs for a short walk early in the morning, and as soon as we get home, they're stretched out on the couch under the ceiling fan. Honestly, I think they're on to something.
Instead of spending the weekend baking in the sun, I decided to join them on the couch for a little binge-watching. My current obsession? Criminal Minds: Evolution. I've always been fascinated by criminology. Sometimes I wonder if I should have studied it instead of real estate!
Of course, there was one other way I noticed everyone else was beating the heat this weekend... ice cream.
Everywhere I drove, the lines seemed to stretch out the door. And yes... I may have contributed to one of those lines myself.
Here are a few of my favorites that are always in the rotation:
🍦 Ship Bottom Ice Cream – Homemade small-batch ice cream with rotating flavors.
🍦 Dippers (Brant Beach) – A neighborhood favorite. I'm completely obsessed with their Death by Chocolate.
🍦 Custard Hut (Brant Beach) – Great frozen custard, plus they serve hard ice cream too.
🍦 Skipper Dipper (Peahala Park) – An LBI institution. If you've ever waited in the line wrapped around the corner, you know it's worth it.
🍦 Kohr Brothers (Beach Haven) – Sometimes all you need is a classic frozen custard in a cone or cup... with sprinkles, of course.
🍦 Woo Hoo (Beach Haven) – Homemade ice cream made with natural ingredients.
🍦 Barry's Do Me A Flavor (Beach Haven) – The perfect place to finish dinner with a sundae, milkshake, or their famous "Pamwich"—two homemade chocolate chip cookies with ice cream sandwiched in between.
I'm convinced calories don't count when it's this hot.
So now I need your help... What's your go-to ice cream spot on LBI? Did I miss one that deserves a visit? Let me know where I should stop next!
Have a wonderful week, stay cool, and if you're dreaming about spending every summer on LBI instead of just vacationing here, let's make that happen.
