Mother Nature can be fickle, especially this time of year on a barrier island. If she stays true to the extended weekend forecast, though, she’ll set the perfect backdrop for Ship Bottom’s second consecutive Day at the Bay celebration on Saturday, Sept. 14.

The event kicks off at noon at the borough’s municipal boat ramp, located just off the Causeway at 10th Street and Shore Avenue. It is expected to run until 4 p.m.
