If you're military show your ID to get on the Beach for free
Downtown Point Pleasant Beach has plenty of places to eat and shop!
There is lots to do on the Asbury Boardwalk and in Downtown Asbury! Eat, drink and be merry!
If you are Military...go here for the beach, its an all military and first responders beach so it is much less crowded and free, just show your military ID to get on post and drive all the way down.
It can be touristy but its fun. Go to the North Bar (Inlet Bar on Google).
