Best Jersey Shore Beaches for Families: Sandy Hook to Cape May
Submitted by Kristen Haas on
Make your New Jersey kid a beach baby and go down the Shore. New Jersey has 130 miles of shoreline and some of the prettiest beaches anywhere. Whether your family is looking for a busy boardwalk with children's rides, a beachside water park, a thrilling amusement park or something a bit quieter, the Jersey Shore has it.
We've rounded up 10 of our favorite Jersey beaches, from a national park on the northern shore down to the busier southern beaches of Cape May and Atlantic City. So pack the car with the best beach gear for a day trip or a long weekend.
The Jersey Shore season officially opens Saturday, May 28. Be sure to check with your local beach for beach tag information and capacity limits before heading out.
