Brigantine Beach
#8 in Best New Jersey Beaches
About 5 miles northeast of Atlantic City, Brigantine Beach offers designated areas for fishing, swimming and surfing. If you’d rather stay on land, you can enjoy barbecuing on the beach in the summer months or horseback riding between October and March. You can also attend free movie nights on the beach all through the summer. Past beachgoers described the area as clean, uncrowded and family oriented. In fact, some said it is one of the best kept secrets along the Jersey shore.
