According to the New Jersey Family
This shore town is worth a visit, even when it isn’t beach season. The pristine boardwalk has an artsy vibe, with stunning murals on display, upscale dining and funky shops.
A trip to the beach is a must, so reserve your space in advance during busy summer months. If you visit with the kids and need a break from the sand, head to the Silverball Museum. This arcade is filled with retro and modern pinball machines and other games, and the hourly rate gets you unlimited game play. Go downtown to Hot Sand to let the kids try their hand at making glass art. From fusing to casting to actual glass blowing you’ll leave with a truly one-of-a-kind glass souvenir. The whimsical Asbury Park Splash Park is a great way to cool off and features giant garden equipment and flowers.
Once concerts make a comeback, head to the legendary Stone Pony where icons like Bruce Springsteen got their start. With a large outdoor summer stage, take in the salty sea air during a show.
