Whether you’re coming for much-needed rest, a weekend of exploration, or a shared experience with people you love, Bay Head is an easy escape from New York — by car or by train — and a starting point for so much more.

We’ve thoughtfully curated the best of the area and are always happy to share recommendations for dining, local experiences, transportation, and day trips, so you can spend less time planning and more time simply being here.

Escape. Explore. Experience.

Featured Experience

Summer in Bay Head

Summer in Bay Head is defined by the beach — pristine sand, a quieter shoreline, and the Atlantic breeze that turns long days into easy nights.

Just minutes from the Bridge Avenue beach entrance, The Lightline House makes the ocean part of your daily rhythm: morning bike rides, mid-day swims, breezy afternoons with a book, and sunset walks in the sand. Evenings stay effortless — unwind at home, catch nearby live music, or explore the shore at your own pace.

Asbury Park Music & Food

Where music history meets a modern shore, all year long–just a short drive or train ride away.

Life Moments & Memory Making

Valentine’s Day, big birthdays, friends’ trip or just some alone time–get away without having to fly.
