Point Pleasant Beach
Point Pleasant Beach has been named as one of New Jersey's best beaches by the New Jersey Marine Science Consortium's 2008 Top 10 Beaches Contest. The family-friendly beach, which is located in Ocean County, is known for its expansive pristine beachfront stretches and scenic mile-long boardwalk.
The expansive beach is kept crystal clean and the Boardwalk is great for kids of any age with dozens of rides along with games of chance, some of the most competitive miniature golf at the beach and Jenkinson’s Aquarium.
All of the required indulgences are offered along the mile-long Boardwalk, including waffles and ice cream, sausage and peppers, popcorn and cotton candy. There are numerous other dining opportunities, from on-the-go to full-service. Off the Boardwalk, there’s year-round entertainment and dining centered along Arnold Ave., with choices including Uncle Vinnie’s Comedy Club.
The beach is also known as an antiquer's paradise, home to delightful antique stores like the Point Pavilion Antique Center. Many to-go and full-service restaurants line the boardwalk, including the renowned Europa South restaurant, which serves up delicious Portuguese cuisine options.
