Sea Bright’s new Beach Pavilion is home to
the town’s Library and Cultural Arts Center and
features decks on the second and third floors that
overlook the ocean, perfect for enjoying views of
the Manhattan skyline, dolphin and whale watching
or catching a perfect sunrise. Stairs and an ADAcompliant
ramp provide access to the deck and down
to the beach. A quarter-mile walkway atop the new
seawall runs from Center Street to the northern end of
the public beach.
The northern-most ocean-beach town on the Jersey
Shore, Sea Bright’s marinas provide easy access to
Manhattan, Sandy Hook Bay and other shore towns.
Sandy Hook, part of Gateway National Recreation
Area, can be reached by just walking north on the
beach.
With direct access to both the ocean and the
Shrewsbury River, Sea Bright offers countless
options for water activities. The ocean’s wide sandy
beaches, with a playground, bathrooms, outdoor
shower facilities and seasonal lockers, are ideal for
swimming, boogie boarding, surfing, paddle boarding
or casting a line. Whether you prefer the river or
the sea, you’ll find excellent fishing, crabbing and
clamming. The beach also hosts plenty of landbased
summer activities, like Movies on the Beach,
volleyball and outdoor yoga.
In addition to being a favorite spot for Jersey Shore
surfers, Sea Bright is home to SkimBash, one of
the East Coast’s premier Pro/Am skimboarding
championships. Skimboarders of all ages, from
beginners to professionals, show off their skills and
compete for cash prizes in this action-packed event
held in June and September each year.
Sea Bright is a day at the beach and so much more.
Here you can catch a gorgeous sunrise over the
ocean and spectacular sunset over the river, all in
one day, with infinite possibilities in between and into
the night. Visit www.seabrightnj.org for more info.
