The borough of Sea Girt is a charming seaside community along a quiet stretch of the Jersey Shore, combining a cozy, small-town environment with an unmistakable beach town vibe. The Sea Girt lighthouse serves as one of the community’s most recognizable landmarks, and the historic Parker House across the street remains a popular tavern and club to this day. With a National Guard Training Center on the south side of town, there is a significant military presence in the area.
In addition to the beach, Crescent Park offers a terrific opportunity to spend time outdoors enjoying the ocean breeze. While Sea Girt’s dining and nightlife scene is limited to a handful of local cafes and neighborhood bars like Reef & Barrel and Harrigan’s Pub, the neighboring town of Manasquan features a thriving Main Street lined with eclectic eateries, specialty shops, and even a performing arts center.
