Welcome/. Ocean County Board of Chosen Freeholders:
Dear Friends:
With 44 miles of Atlantic coastline, sugar sand beaches, nostalgic
Jersey Shore boardwalks and the serenity of the Barnegat Bay,
Ocean County offers an array of attractions and festivals for every
age and every month of the year.
Summertime is spectacular in Ocean County. But, beyond the
summer season, our extraordinary festivals, county parks, fishing
excursions and unique venues provide exciting and educational
experiences during ALL four seasons. Six Flags Great Adventure
thrills visitors from April to January. Jenkinson’s Aquarium,
a variety of museums, live performances and our picturesque
vineyard delight and entertain travelers all year round.
On behalf of the Board of Chosen Freeholders, I invite you to visit
us. Whether it is your first time or a family favorite for generations,
we know that Ocean County draws people back time and time
again Because the wonders and discoveries, the memories and
new friends remain in the hearts of those who escape to our part
of the Jersey Shore. We are not your typical destination. Explore
our website at www.OceanCountyTourism.com and find your next
adventure here
. . . in Ocean County, New Jersey.
Sincerely,
Joseph H. Vicari, Ocean County Freeholder
