Long Branch Beach

"Super clean and tidy beach. Fees apply for parking and beach access (during season). We saved the money for beach access as we were here duing off sesson (end of September). Nice in this section of the beach that pets are not allowed. Many nice restaurants and bars in walking distance."

"Meter parking $14 for the day. Very nice beach for the family many nearby shops within walking distance. Great destination if you want get out of Dodge for the day."

"It is one of the shore’s most popular beach towns. Last I visited this place in 2019 June, and I am seeing lots of changes since then. It was once a quiet community surrounded by farms. Today, it’s a bustling resort town with wide, sandy beaches and an oceanfront promenade. In peak summertime, it took me almost 2 hrs. to reach here from Parsippany (Yup Traffic, Traffic & more Traffic) . There is something for everyone and you can dine in or take out for a beach picnic. Pier Village has it all, shops, restaurants, cafes, bars, Ice cream shops, and fine-dine. you can find everything which you desire when you are visiting any beach/shore. There’s also a 7Eleven for quick snacks, drinks, and beach items (toys, sunblock, etc..). There’s a surf shop, a clothing store, a shoe store, Parking: just pray someone leaves the spot and then you park out there, I spent 20 mins going from one place to another. The fee is $3/hr and there is a garage but why would I pay $50 for the whole day? It’s more expensive than New York. Beach passes are $5 per adult and children are free. You can buy them at the beach or online. Don’t get me wrong, and I have been to every beach Jersey Shore has to offer, but I would keep Long Branch in the same league as Point Pleasant, Atlantic City & Ocean City."

"Great beach in Jersey Shores. This beach is a good location form NEw York City where you can get here in 1.5 hours. There are a few parking options or your can park on the street. There is a fee to be on the beach but it’s clean and not too crowded."

"Love the beach. Atmosphere is amazing there. We live in New York city and we get to that beach I felt like we traveled many hours to get this to this beautiful place. Very clean. Lots of shops and restaurants are nearby. We ate at burgers house (I might have a mistake in its name), ate ice cream and bought candy at the store. It was great experience there. Will definitely come back again. Kids loved it."
