I love New Jersey! Weekends are for BBQs, friends, family, fireworks and our beautiful beaches at the Jersey Shore.

Summertime is my favorite time of the year and we live in the most beautiful place. I know, several of you will say, "What" Sue, yes, I love living here and in Ocean County, New Jersey.

Why We Love Our New Jersey Beaches

I'm thinking of warmth and the beautiful beaches in Ocean County. Recently, we had you vote for the best beach in Ocean County. You voted for your favorite beach and it's definitely a favorite for Ocean County residents that beach is Island Beach State Park.

The Never-Ending Jersey Shore Beach Debate

 The one thing we always complain about is paying to get on our beaches. I just wish that since we're Jersey Shore residents we would get a FREE pass all summer long at the Jersey Shore.
This beach town that is the coolest isn't in Ocean or Monmouth Counties. This small cool Jersey Shore town is in Cape May County.

Why Avalon Is Getting National Attention

According to onlyinyourstate.comAvalon, NJ is the coolest small New Jersey town and one of the coolest in the USA.

What Makes Avalon So Special

Avalon is located on Seven Mile Island and is a fan favorite for shopping, a beautiful beach, and delicious restaurants.

Do You Think Avalon Is the Coolest?

Whether you visit our beach in the summer, spring, fall, or winter you will love it. I think there's always been a little bit of competition between Monmouth County beaches and Ocean County beaches that extends down south and further north, also.
