Best: Family Fun Beaches
Point Pleasant Beach
Exit N-90/S-98
Fun House isn’t just an attraction on the Point Pleasant Beach boardwalk; it’s an appropriate moniker for this seaside playground with its world-class aquarium, live entertainment, amusement rides, wide beaches and array of dining options. The boardwalk’s newest attraction: Jenkinson’s Adventure Lookout Ropes Course. Also on the boardwalk, Jenkinson’s South Amusement Park features more than 20 rides for kids of all ages. Want to get the kids out of the sun? At Jenkinson’s Aquarium, they can view sharks, penguins, alligators and seals—even sea stars and stingrays in the touch tank. For dinner, head over to Frankie’s Bar & Grill on Richmond Avenue to feast on 10-ounce sirloin burgers. A $6.95 children’s menu offers six selections served with fries and a glass of milk or soda. End a great day at Hoffman’s, where you can indulge in delicious homemade ice cream—from strawberry bon-bon to peanut butter nugget.
