Asbury Park Boardwalk, Asbury Park

Well known spot but a nice secret to take a family and relax for the day or more . I went with my children and was an amazing time. We at at the TV famous Cousins lobster 🦞 had lobster rolls to die for !! Also ice cream next door. Like all the best parts of OC and AC together in one without the gambling and smoke around .... recommended for a future visit for anyone.

It was a very nice day in Asbury today. There was a Lobster Race going on, not real lobsters, but people running or walking a 5K to raise money to help protect and restore the shore. There was a band playing on the boardwalk. There were some places to eat on the boardwalk, but not everything was open yet. This is one of the beaches on the Jersey Shore that dogs are permitted on the boardwalk during the off-season. The Asbury off-season is Sept. 15- May 15. Sunset Lake Memorial Park is two blocks from the boardwalk. It's a tribute to the men and women of Asbury Park who served in their country's Armed Forces in time of war. You need to pay for parking on the street year-round, but parking lots are free off season.

It’s a great boardwalk if you’re in central jersey. There are restaurants that have good food and a small carnival that always goes on there. Great place to run and/or take a walk. Also the beach is nice and clean and have access to all the amenities required. Parking gets crazy sometimes. Even getting in and out is a hazzle. And the entrance to the beach is $9 for adults over the weekend.

This is most happening beach I have visited in NJ after Atlantic City. Good night life. One side beautiful beach and other side full of Restaurent and pubs. Parking is painful and I didn’t find changing room after bath.

My happy place!!! 😊😊😊😊 I've been to a countless number of East Coast beaches, big and small and none compare to the way I feel when I am at Asbury Park. This is truly the place where down the shore, everything is alright. Asbury Park is magical. A sweet spot suspended somewhere between past and present where life can be simple and dreamy. The boardwalk is a place where history sustains and the future is bright. The boardwalk and beach are very clean. Lots of parking but beware the Parking Enforcement -they've pinched me a couple times for expired meters. You can walk everywhere is Asbury. It is a family friendly 👪, inclusive 🌈 and safe ✌ place. The boardwalk has a great variety of eateries. Also lots a fun shops. The Convention Hall, The "Casino" and The "Carousel Building" are architectural landmarks along the Jersey Shore. Landmarks like The Stone Pony, The Wonder Bar, Asbury Lanes, Deal Lake, the paddle boats and Ocean Grove are short walks away. And asides from the beach, the boardwalk has activities -mini golf, a splash park, retro arcade and palm readings. Asbury holds a special place in my heart and after a visit I'm sure you'll find it special too.
