A great mixture of sandy beach and lively boardwalk, with a number of a restaurants and bars to stop into that have ocean views. The boardwalk can be accessed anytime but if you want to go to the beach you’ll need to buy a beach badge online (linked below) or in person at the kiosks along the boardwalk.
A quieter beach than Asbury if you're looking for some downtime. Address provided is for the Southern Pavilion, but you can use the beach up to the North Pavilion as well. You can buy a beach badge online at the link below or in person at either the North End Pavilion (Between Tuttle & Ludlow Aves) or South End Pavilion (Between Salem & Atlantic Aves) on the boardwalk.
Another beach option, this one is closer to the hotels. You can buy a beach badge online at the link below or in person at any beach entrance.
A classic NJ diner experience! Great onion rings!!
Eric loves these and once drove Izzy an hour out of the way for them!
Get a Taylor Ham, egg and cheese here (or at any deli in the area).
