Visit the resort town of Point Pleasant in Ocean County and you will see why the Lenape Indians enjoyed this locale in the 1600s. This community by the sea is still charming visitors and residents alike. Many fishermen have lived in Point Pleasant throughout the centuries, so the town has a history deep in fishing traditions. Fishing is such an important part of life here that the town hosts an annual Seafood Festival every September. There are plenty of wonderful treats like bisques and crab cakes and even some non-fish foods to indulge in. Craft vendors and musicians are on hand to sell their wares and offer entertainment to the crowds. Need a place to stay? There is a choice of accommodations to provide a home away from home atmosphere. These range from bed and breakfast inns to motels to private homes for rent. Of course, if you have come to Point Pleasant, you are probably expecting to spend a day on the beach. You can find that perfect spot for your umbrella and blanket at one of the public or private beaches. Private beaches offer protected bathing areas but also charge a fee to visitors. As a fishing community, you can expect a wealth of seafood restaurants to satisfy cravings for mussels, shrimp, and other oceanic delicacies. Whether it is an exquisite dinner at an upscale restaurant or a casual meal by the dock with a view of the boats and the setting sun, you will find it here. Perhaps a late night cocktail is the perfect way to wind down. Point Pleasant’s taverns will make you feel like a local in no time. |
