About Seaside Heights

Seaside Heights, New Jersey, is a coastal town known primarily for its vibrant boardwalk and proximity to the Atlantic Ocean. With a population of approximately 3,000 residents, this small borough expands significantly during the summer months due to its appeal as a beach destination.

The borough is famous for its bustling boardwalk, which includes numerous arcades, eateries, and amusement rides. Notable attractions include Casino Pier, an amusement park featuring rides, games, and mini-golf (Casino Pier), and Breakwater Beach, a waterpark adjacent to Casino Pier (Breakwater Beach).
