Relaxation in Point Pleasant Beach vacation home rentals
Point Pleasant Beach is one of the most popular summer resorts on New Jersey’s scenic Barnegat Peninsula. Its famous boardwalk is an iconic landmark, combining family-friendly entertainment with the same ocean views that first enchanted real estate developers back in the 1870s. The former farmland was swiftly transformed into a stylish seaside town with many elegant hotels, summer houses, and beachfront pavilions. The lure of the Jersey Shore is just as strong today, with Point Pleasant Beach vacation rentals providing the perfect gateway to its sun-drenched beaches, gourmet restaurants, and eye-catching attractions.
Tourist attractions near Point Pleasant Beach vacation homes
Jenkinson’s Aquarium, a highlight of the Point Pleasant Beach boardwalk, has been a firm favorite since 1991. The aquarium offers a chance to view the marine life of the Atlantic Ocean at close quarters and learn more about the world’s precious underwater habitats. Feeding penguins, stroking stingrays, and coming face-to-face with sharks are just some of the memories that visitors take away with them. A program of behind-the-scenes tours and special theme days widens the remit. The aquarium is open year-round but seasonal hours of operation vary, so check with the venue before you visit.
Local weather in Point Pleasant Beach vacation homes
The temperate climate of the Barnegat Peninsula ensures a long beach season that in a good year stretches from March through October. During the hottest months of high summer, the benefits of Point Pleasant Beach vacation rentals with a pool come into their own. The intense sun of July and August is mitigated by refreshing ocean breezes. Alfresco dining is possible even in the depths of winter, thanks to the warming effect of the Atlantic Gulf Stream, so it’s a good time to book Point Pleasant Beach vacation rentals with a barbecue and patio deck at low-season rates.
