SHORE REGION

While there is more than 90 miles of white-sand beaches in the region there is more to do then enjoying the Atlantic
Ocean, surfing, and relaxing on the beach. The region is lush with Jersey Fresh Produce stands, fishing and boating
opportunities, and lighthouses to explore. Birding is another favorite past time for visitors to the region. However, some
feel the need for speed and head over to Six Flags Great Adventure or to Jenkinson’s Boardwalk.
