Absolutely loved it!! It's a smaller boardwalk but has rides, arcades, great food, and a few cute gift shops. There's an aquarium on the boardwalk, too. The beach was huge....long walk to the ocean but it was so white and clean with palm trees.???? The water was a beautiful turquoise blue. I also saw an area with showers right on the beach so you can clean off. Perfect. I went there for a school trip but definitely going back with my husband and maybe grandchildren. Great family place to visit.
A wonderful family-focused boardwalk. So much to see. So much to do. But my favorite things are the little "notes and sayings" pressed into the concrete benches along the way. These benches are memorials to loved ones lost, with the hope that the memory of their experiences will inspire others. I wish I had more pictures, but these two are my favorite.
An amazing place for summer vacation, came for memorial day it was jammed packed, loved the vibes. Everything was open, the beach was beautiful, so many attractions, the shops were a little expensive, but loved everything
Looks like a fun summer town. We stopped for the day in the off season so most shops were closed but you can tell this would be a great place for summer vacation, especially for kids ages 10+.
Took our grand daughter for the first time and she approves!!!! She's 2 and a half and she was a little apprehensive at fist. But after the first ride she was convinced this was the best thing ever! We went early spring so it wasn't too crowded. Will be going back
Wonderful place to take the family. We have been going for many years. We always have a ball . So much fun.
Boardwalk & beach are both VERY underwhelming. If this is the only boardwalk + beach combo you can manage, then it’s sufficient i suppose. You’d be MUCH better off driving the extra 40 minutes to Ocean City, even Atlantic City or even Seaside is better (and that’s saying a lot). This beach is short & crowded, costs $14 for adults, and drops off 10ft or so to the water surface. The boardwalk is short (maybe a 1000’), narrow (15’ across), and lame— gimmicky attractions, arcades & food. Skee ball is $1.50 per game?? Parking is also nonexistent.
On the other hand, Ocean city boardwalk is several MILES long, 50 feet across, has 2 whole amusement parks, and packed with great games, shops, novelty stores, great food and unmatched arcades (Jilly’s). Beaches there are $10, clean, wide, and very long. Ocean City is better in every way, and better for every age group including families & those who are older (I’m 24, my parents are 50, and we have never had a bad experience there the past 15 years we’ve gone). I don’t even know how Point Pleasant managed to make ANY ‘Top 10 Boardwalks in NJ’ list online. It stinks! Never going back
Jenkinson's is hands down the most fun kid experience on the Jersey shore. No question. The boardwalk is comparable to Coney Island with a heavy emphasis on kid-friendly activities all within a short walk of each other. Between the aquarium, beach, rides, arcade games, and miniature golf, Jenkinson's has been a family destination for generations.
