Savor secluded beach access on the Jersey shore

Coastal Seaside Quiet Family-Friendly Laidback Close-Knit

Accessible to the Atlantic Ocean beaches and the Barnegat Bay shoreline, Lavallette is considered to be one of the nicest beach communities on the Barnegat Peninsula. Home to less than 3,000 permanent residents, Lavallette hosts an array of events and activities to strengthen and enrich the local community.

Lavallette is a short drive from busier areas on the Jersey shore but far enough away to feel secluded and serene. In addition to extensive beach access, Lavallette boasts a slew of fine restaurants, a yacht club, and several fishing spots on the shores of the Barnegat Bay and the Atlantic Ocean. Popular local spots include the Music Man Singing Ice Cream Shoppe, Colonial Bakery, Crabs Claw Inn, Lenny’s Pizza and Italian Grill, and Lava Java House.
