On the New Jersey shore, Point Pleasure Beach Pavilion or Jenkinsons Beach as it is commonly called has arcades and smaller children oriented rides. The rides and arcade games are certainly not cheap but are not terribly expensive.
I haven't been there in the evening but during the day it seems like a friendly family oriented place. It is especially worth while way of spending a day if it's raining or cold and the beach is not a good idea.

Free parking, yaaaass! You do need to pay to get on the beach but thank you, amazing lady, she let us just sit on the beach and not pay! Quiet place for thinking and relaxing. What else you need
Beautiful scenery in Long Island. Don't miss the best sunsets here! Also there is a food court at the beach where you can get lobster rolls, etc! There's a small playground and BBQ options for those who can access it.
Was looking for a beach outside of NYC. Found this beach on the top beaches to visit in Jersey, since it didn’t seemed that far I decided to go. Did not know this beach was privatized therefore had to pay $14 p/p because I went on a weekend. However, it didn’t bother me that much since they keep the beach clean. I was very happy to enter clean waters and feel safe. The waves were crazy that day but I really enjoyed myself and felt like a child again. I come from Puerto Rico and really miss the beach. This beach reminded me of home except that the water was freezing but after a while you just forget about it. My friend had an ankle cast and they kindly sat her in a beach wheelchair and took her to the stop we wanted to be.
Things I didn’t like is the restriction of the size of cooler you can bring, you can only swim until 5:40 pm and have to leave by 6:50 pm. Wish the swimming time and leave time were later. Also, finding parking in a weekend was a nightmare since there is also an amusement park and restaurants there.

Love coming here early in the morning and walking the boardwalk. It's so peaceful and serene. The old architecture of Convention Hall against the majesty of the ocean, sun rising above the horizon just brings a sense of zen.
During the day, it's a fun, busy place with great eats and views. The beach can get a bit crowded, but it's well worth coming and checking out.

Amazing spot! Me and my girls came here on a Friday afternoon—there was live music, so many amazing food options, good customer service, and the vibes were perfect. Prime place to go for a beach day. Five stars!
Fun boardwalk with a lot of attractions including an aquarium and arcades. The beach access is either cash or card. There is also a small amusement park with rides for adults and children.
Spent Sunday afternoon on the beach with some friends. The beach was clean, not overcrowded, and we were all treated to a group of people being Baptisted! I wish I would of thought to get a few pics. Further, it was only $9 per person for the day. You can bring a cooler for food and drinks if you want, or there are dining options on the boardwalk. The only possible drawback is the parking, so make sure to go early or bring a bike to ride from your car to the beach. 🏖🌊🌞🐳
You can't go wrong at presque isle beaches; however, what kept this beach from getting 5 stars was the amount of rocks you had to walk through to get to the sand in the water. This beach did have a lot of areas for people to lay out their towels without feeling overly crowded. There are a lot of areas that offer shade from the trees without leaving the beach and there were bathrooms. The parking lot was big enough that finding a spot wasn't an issue. It was a beautiful day and the water was really clear.
Wishing a loved one a Happy Heavenly Birthday, great spot.
Found this hidden gem while visiting my friend in highlands. Perfect spot to bring your behaved pets, go fishing, listening to music and tan and cheers your best mates w a cold one.
Just a lovely spot for a family get together. Walking distance to fishing as well
Rockaway Bazaar is amazing and a super unique spot. Multiple food & drink options. Right on the boardwalk and the ocean, perfect for a beach day. Will definitely be going back. Highly recommend!
This closing time is misleading. The kitchen closes at 7 PM the latest, but sometimes 6 PM if the weather is no good.
I was there Friday evening at 8pm to grab a bite. All food vendors closed and it had only started to just begin to dribble. I came because it said 10pm closing.

The Asbury Park beach and boardwalk of today are not the same ones I knew growing up. Today they are full of businesses, beachgoers, foodies and people who just want to enjoy the sounds of the waves. The boardwalk has been refurbished, and there are many new restaurants and hotels. In addition, to famous landmarks like the Stone Pony where Bruce Springsteen got his start. The boardwalk itself is rather accessible, it could get bumpy at times. There is access to the beach as you can see in some of the photos. However, it only will let you go halfway to the water. This is great for a day trip, or a weekend trip so long as you don't stay too close to the beach as the hotels are rather pricey. Head on out and enjoy yourself!
Really nice beach park although I wouldn't really say it's a beach more of a bay with a sand area to relax. Water looks clean enough to go in. This isn't a typical beach with waves. I saw some folks in the water. 1You do need to pay for parking. There is also a nice boardwalk.
A bit rocky for a stroll and cold in December. Probably good fishing since there are a bunch of stations along the seawall. Probably a safe place too since there are a bunch of cameras on the gazebo.
Wow! What an amazing day! The water was delightful and couldn't ask for a better day at the beach. Loved it!
First time at Presque Isle on a perfect summer day. Beach 7 had a lot of parking spaces including handicap slots. The area was clean with lifeguards. I had a great time.
Nice beach. Pretty clean, good size, nice overlook at the top for people who don’t want to be in the sand and water. Sand was clean, waves were nice a calm and the sunset was real nice from this beach. Would recommend.
Great little beach.
Walked from Aberdeen sea wall to the Cliffwood beach. Nice 0.5 mile clean and well maintained walkway leading to a gazebo and then on to the Cliffwood beach. It’s a nice place for sunset walks, overlooking the water and you can even see the NYC skyline. The Cliffwood beach itself has lot of debris and even garbage and lot of people with their fishing lines, sometimes making it difficult to walk on the water side at the beach.
Great history here in fact there is a corner section covered with trees that is hiding the foundation of an old, once beautiful, swimming pool. The blue walls are still visible but be wary of ticks.
Fun like it remeber to use sunscreen and reapply! Enjoy.the sand!!!
Belmar has a wonderful family friendly beach. There are parks for children lining the beach front. There's a mat walkway running down the beach on all entrances that makes it easy to bring strollers or beach caddys right onto the beach. The beach isn't so long that you're walking forever to reach the water. It has Playa Bowls, Dunkin Donuts and a few other places across the street where you can easily grab bags of ice, ice cream or lunch. I was able to run and grab my son chicken fingers instead of having to leave the beach. And bring him right to the park when he was getting antsy. The closest park was visable from our things and a 1 min walk. Perfect beach.
Year after year our family looks forward to the beautiful beaches, natural surroundings and great time with family and friends. We love Presque Isle!
Love Belmar. Nice boardwalk and plenty of places to get coffee and food.
