A primarily residential beach borough between Sea Bright and Long Branch, with a quieter pace centered around the ocean, river, and private beach clubs. There is little traditional boardwalk or downtown activity here. Instead, the town is defined by marinas, waterfront homes, and a low-key atmosphere that feels more residential than tourism-driven for most of the year.
