Covering 640 acres, Ocean Grove is a tiny coastal town in the center of the Jersey shore. Its beach is ideal for surfing and boogie boarding, but the shores are also a great fit for families looking to play on the flat sand or wade in the shallows. Additionally, you’ll find essential beach amenities like lifeguards, showers and bathrooms on-site. There’s also a boardwalk for leisurely strolls.

Home to one of the most recognizable boardwalks in the country, Ocean City lives up to its self-proclaimed nickname of «America’s Greatest Family Resort.» The city features nearly 8 miles of shoreline and is flanked by the Atlantic Ocean on one side and Great Egg Harbor Bay on the other. Spend your days riding the waves along Waverly Boulevard or 16th Street, biking down the boardwalk or even enjoying a yoga session on the warm sand.
