Bradley Beach draws both summer visitors and locals
A historic popular summer hideaway for New Yorkers — especially for Little Italy and Chinatown residents — looking to escape the city, to this day, Bradley Beach remains a tranquil destination for summer beachgoers and year-round residents. While this Monmouth County borough certainly expands its population in the summer months, many residents call Bradley Beach home all year long. "The whole Jersey Shore has become more year-round than it used to be," says Laura Parios-McBride. "People appreciate the beauty whether it is summer or winter."
The neighborhood vibe in Bradley Beach is fun and lively.
Bradley Beach was established in 1893.
Bradley Beach has a cute downtown with many local shops.

Historic beach colonials and rebuilt homes line the streets
Live right across from the boardwalk or just minutes from the ocean in Bradley Beach. The borough's beautiful historic houses and apartments help bring summer renters back each year. At the same time, homeowners take pride in their piece of beachside paradise. "Some streets have absolutely beautiful, old large beach colonials," Parios-McBride says. "Also, after Hurricane Sandy, a lot of destroyed homes were purchased and rebuilt into new huge colonials." In Bradley Beach, while there's more than colonials, almost all feature front porches, a Jersey Shore necessity. Residences tend to cost between $750,000 and $3.2 million. Beach condos start around $400,000 and creep up to nearly $1 million.
Large beach homes are located along Ocean Avenue in Bradley Beach.
Homes with front porches are a necessity for relaxing and people watching in Bradley Beach.
Raised beach homes are a great option for those with large families in Bradley Beach.

Boardwalk connects beaches, parks and local attractions
Residents can spend their days on the borough's sandy beaches. You can walk, bike and jog on the paved boardwalk that connects the various avenue beaches. All along the Oceane Avenue boardwalk, there's Bradley Beach Park, McCabe Avenue Beach, LaRiene Avenue Beach, Brinley Avenue Beach and Fourth Avenue Beach. Swimmers, surfers and fishermen flock to the ocean every summer. Right off the boardwalk, play mini golf with friends and family at Shipwreck Island with the sea as your backdrop. Riley Park, near the Bradley Beach train station, is a small green space where the community comes together for concerts, craft shows, flea markets and festivals. For indoor fun, score strike after strike at Bradley Beach Bowl. Or, check out beach reads from the Bradley Beach Public Library. In the past, librarians or volunteers have ridden bikes around town and on the boardwalk distributing books to residents.
There are many beach access points in Bradley Beach.
Shipwreck Island Mini Golf is a family friendly activity in Bradley Beach.
Families head to the Bradley Beach playground for sand-free fun with the kids.

Local restaurants and dessert spots draw beachgoers daily
Bradley Beach may be a quiet, quaint beach town, but its Main Street has plenty of local restaurants and shops that residents and summer visitors alike love. After a long day at the beach, feast on Italian comfort food at Marandola's. Then get a scoop or two from Beach Plum, conveniently located within walking distance to Marandola's. Beach Plum is also a popular post-beach stop, with many residents raving over their classic and special flavors. Some special flavors include sea salt caramel and blackberry-raspberry chip. On the flip side, you can start your days at The Buttered Biscuit Café with a latte and a biscuit.
Beach Plum is the go-to spot for ice cream after a sunny day in Bradley Beach.

Train and bus routes connect to NYC and Philadelphia
Bradley Beach is named for James A. Bradley, the developer mastermind behind both Bradley Beach and Asbury Park. While Bradley Beach is 60 miles away from New York City, a train line in the borough brings residents directly to New York Penn Station. It's about 75 miles from Philadelphia, easily reached by bus or a drive down I-95.
