The inland section of Point Pleasant offers a wonderful mix of residential neighborhoods and local commerce. Bridge Avenue and Route 88 are lined with shops, restaurants, parks, and ball fields. It’s ideal for those who want close proximity to Point Pleasant Beach and Bay Head while enjoying a quieter, year-round feel. Conveniently located near Brick Township and major roadways.

One of Ocean County’s most beloved shore towns, Point Pleasant Beach is known for its family-friendly boardwalk, aquarium, Jetty Inlet, and vibrant downtown. Watch fishing boats head out to sea, enjoy waterfront dining at local favorites, and explore a wide variety of shops, restaurants, and everyday conveniences. A classic Jersey Shore experience.

Elegant and timeless, Bay Head is known for its historic Victorian homes, uncrowded beaches, and peaceful atmosphere. Just south of Point Pleasant Beach, this charming town features lakefront views, quaint inns, boutique shopping, and intimate dining — perfect for those seeking refined coastal living.

Just south of Bay Head, Mantoloking and Mantoloking Shores offer pristine guarded beaches and exceptional waterfront living. While there are no commercial districts, residents enjoy oceanfront estates, bayfront homes, and access to the Mantoloking Yacht Club. Mantoloking Shores also features lagoon, cove, and bayfront properties, along with a bayfront playground across from Brick Beach.

A warm and welcoming family vacation town, Normandy Beach sits perfectly between Mantoloking and Lavallette. It offers a blend of oceanfront and bayfront homes, a bay beach and playground, small shops, local dining, and access to the Normandy Beach Yacht Club.

This collection of independent beach communities includes Ocean Beaches I, II, and III, Chadwick Beach, Silver Beach, Monterey Beach, Seacrest Beach, and more. Known for smaller, deed-restricted beach homes, these areas offer guarded beaches, playgrounds, and access to both the ocean and bay — a more affordable option while remaining close to Lavallette and Point Pleasant Beach.

Centrally located on the Barnegat Bay Peninsula, Lavallette is one of the most sought-after shore towns. Enjoy guarded beaches, a peaceful amusement-free boardwalk, playgrounds, tennis courts, fishing and crabbing docks, and charming local shops. Watch boats sail from the yacht club, stroll Route 35 during summer sidewalk sales, and savor dining by the bay. A true Jersey Shore favorite for generations.

Ortley Beach has seen remarkable renewal since Sandy, with beautiful new construction throughout the community. The rebuilt bayfront park offers basketball courts, tennis courts, and a playground overlooking the water. Enjoy local restaurants, casual breakfast spots, arcades, and a small boardwalk — all contributing to Ortley’s relaxed shore vibe.

Known worldwide, Seaside Heights continues to evolve with a revitalized boardwalk, classic amusements, waterparks, and iconic dining. While embracing its history, the town has worked hard to redefine itself as a fun, family-friendly destination along the Jersey Shore.

Seaside Park offers a quieter, more residential feel with a mix of large Victorian homes and smaller beach cottages. The town center features local shops and eateries, and Island Beach State Park anchors the southern end, providing miles of protected shoreline and natural beauty.

Whether you’re dreaming of a summer getaway, a year-round coastal home, or a smart investment, The Pierce Group Real Estate is here to guide you every step of the way. If you’d like to explore homes in any of these towns or need local insight, we’d love to help you discover your perfect place at the Jersey Shore.
