There's a lot more to Long Beach Island NJ than our sugar sand beaches
touched by the clear blue Atlantic Ocean! If you've decided to rent
a home or apartment for a week, month or the entire season, rest assured
that there's plenty to do, both on "The Island" and across the Bay on
"The Mainland!"
OUTDOORS: Did you know that the NJ Pine
Barrens is about 15 minutes from Long Beach Island? These million-plus
acres offer an entirely different outdoor experience from the beautiful
beaches of Long Beach Island! Canoe through the Pine Barrens on
its pristine rivers, hike the 50-mile Batona Trail where you might be
lucky enough to spot some rare wild orchids or an eagle soaring overhead,
visit historical villages like Batsto or Whitesbog, browse
through museums....there's lots to do do out
there - but beware of the JERSEY DEVIL (but you can sign up for a Jersey Devil Hunt)!! Visit http://www.pineypower.com/ for
the area's most comprehensive guide and calendar of events for the Pine
Barrens.
SHOPPING: Just across the Route 72 causeway
bridge is a collection of well-known stores offering everything from groceries
to hardware. Lowe's and Home Depot, Shop-Rite and Pathmark, Costco and
BJ's, Pet-Smart, Target, Kohl's, Staples, Pier 1, and more all run along
the southern side of Route 72 from just west of the Garden State Parkway
to Route 9. If that's not enough, HAMILTON MALL is just over a half hour away
to the south (about 15 minutes west of Atlantic City), and OCEAN COUNTY
MALL is about a half hour to the
north. For outlet shopping, ATLANTIC CITY OUTLETS to the south, or JACKSON PREMIUM OUTLETS in northwestern Ocean County
should keep you busy for days on end!
POINTS OF INTEREST: TUCKERTON SEAPORT - Filled with nautical history
of the bayshore and surrounding area including the mystique of the Pirates
that once sailed our waters, this wonderful village should be a "must
see" during your visit to Long Beach Island, no matter what time of year!
DOUBLE TROUBLE STATE PARK in Berkeley
Township, just a short drive from the Island, has a genuine cranberry
harvest each October, and the public is welcome to come watch at no charge!
