Fodor’s named Ocean Grove one of the 15 Best Beaches in the World in 2014. Good Housekeeping Magazine ranked Ocean Grove one of the best beach towns in America in 2017. Why? Because Ocean Grove is easily one of the most eye-catching beach towns you will ever see. Victorian architecture is a major draw of the area as is the beach and boardwalk. The downtown district—with cute shops and restaurants—is just two blocks from the famed boardwalk. You go to the Shore for the beach and Ocean Grove’s is pristine. It’s popular with families for its annual sandcastle and kite-flying contests, volleyball games, and boogey board races.
