The famous Jersey Shore is just one of the many reasons people come to New Jersey. Sea Girt, a beachfront town was founded in 1875. In the summer, thousands crowd the Sea Girt beaches for some sun and surfing, while others choose to spend their days walking along the boardwalk, enjoying a spectacular view of the Atlantic Ocean. Golfers can spend summer days on the various public golf courses located within minutes of the area.
The Sea Girt Light House is at the north end of town, and it holds many events every season like the New Jersey Light House Challenge and International Light House Weekend. The Sea Girt Light House is located at Ocean Avenue and Beacon Boulevard, and its one of 20 lighthouses still standing today in New Jersey.
