Frequently Asked Questions

Which Jersey Shore towns are covered?

Bay Head, Mantoloking, Point Pleasant Beach, Lavallette, Spring Lake, Sea Girt, Manasquan and Rumson, spanning Monmouth and Ocean County, plus the surrounding coastal communities.

What is the difference between the barrier island towns and the river towns?

Barrier-island towns like Mantoloking and Lavallette sit between ocean and bay with beach access and higher flood exposure. River towns like Rumson offer acreage and deep-water docks on the Navesink but no ocean frontage of their own.
