Beach access is available, although there is no lifeguard on duty. A fun afternoon for parents with children, although children must be watched carefully. During Happy Hour, when a live band sets up to perform, the crowd shifts to a twenty-something crowd. This usually signals retreating time to those with children. Parking is usually available, but does fill up quick during the dog days of summer.
Pleasant beach lies on the northern tip of Ocean County.
It has been a family beach vacation destination since the 1940's. A full half-mile of boardwalk complete with rides and amusements makes this a must for local families each summer. The beaches are wide and clean, with no specific cooler or alcohol consumption regulations. Our favorite, Martell's , a Carribbean-style tiki bar and grill has something for everyone. Inside, a wide variety of food offerings range from the famous boardwalk hot dog to fresh sushi.
