Situated between the communities of Manasquan and Spring Lake along the New Jersey shoreline, the borough of Sea Girt offers a small-town respite for residents and vacationers alike. Originally purchased as private land for a summer estate in the mid-1800s, this beachside town was eventually developed as a summer vacation resort area. Today, its 1900 permanent inhabitants enjoy gorgeous views and outdoor activities year-round.

Local Attractions

The beach at Sea Girt is open all year, offering a great place to sunbathe and swim in summer and to stroll quietly in the off-season. The adjacent non-commercial boardwalk provides gorgeous panoramic views of the ocean, as well as access to the town’s historic lighthouse built in 1896, for which guided tours are available to the public. Various shops and restaurants are available around town, with more shopping and dining available in nearby Manasquan.
