Point Pleasant Boardwalk


Point Pleasant Boardwalk is a hot spot for people of all ages. By day, families roam the beaches and children ride the rides. By night, teens and young adults stroll along the boards, stopping to play games, eat cotton candy, and show off their miniature golf skills. Once the sun fully sets, everyone comes together to watch the fireworks show on Thursday nights at the Jersey Shore.




All along the southern stretch of the boards (where the action is,) you will find arcades, wheels of chance, games of skill, food, rides and gift shops. Jenkinson's Aquarium is located on the north end (of the attraction's area) and there is a fun house right near the middle. Additionally you will find Martell's Tiki Bar and Jenkinson's Nightclub here. Further North, you will pass many shore homes with boardwalk front property. Just further along, the boardwalk ends at the Manasquan Inlet where you will witness many commercial fishing vessels, Party boats, as well as recreational boaters cruising in or out from the Atlantic. This is also a prime fishing area!

In the winter, the action slows. On nice days, you will see many locals and a few day-trippers walking along the boardwalk. On cold, rainy, or just downright miserable days, the boards can get empty. Some days, you may just be lucky enough to have nice weather and the boardwalk all to yourself. Winter may in-fact be one of the best times to enjoy Point Pleasant Beach.
