This weekend is THE annual Chowder Cook-off! Stop by the park behind Bay Village, in the center of Beach Haven, on Saturday (entrance is free) or on Sunday (ticket needed) if you are still around to vote for your favorite red or white clam chowder.
The BEST eats on the island. BYOB. You'll probably run into Taylor's dad here.
Drinks & food with a sunset view. Get the clam pizza!
Sushi AND steaks.
For those looking for a bar to watch #sports (or for a Bloody Mary with shrimp cocktail in it). Weather permitting, the rooftop Buoy Bar offers great views.
Picnic tables on the bay. BYOB.
Great Happy Hour stop!
Awesome food including raw bar. But if it's too crowded, try The Terrace Tavern next door!
One of the few spots you may need to snag a reservation early for, but the food & view are worth it! Also BYOB.
The best dive bar on the island. Or maybe in the state.
You can't leave NJ without a taylor ham, egg, and cheese sandwich.
Sign up for the wing challenge or grab an omelet at "The Chegg." Also open late night.
Nearby Golf Courses: LBI National Ocean Acres ...or pick a mini golf course if you prefer to stay on the island :) Barnegat Lighthouse State Park: home of iconic "Old Barney" lighthouse and beautiful views at the Northernmost end of the island Fantasy Island Amusement Park & Arcade: if you're traveling with kids (or not!)
