These towns seem to offer something for everyone. Those seeking seaside recreation have a convenient, clean white beach where children build sandcastles along the breakers while their parents bask in the sunshine and cool salt-air breezes.

And if shopping builds up an appetite, the many fine restaurants, coffee shops and cafes can accommodate the most eclectic taste. But the fun does not end when the sun sets. At night, the local boardwalk pulsates with colorful lights, the cries of barkers, exiting rides whirling and twisting beneath the night sky, and the electronic blips and bleeps of the latest video games. From the doors of the bright nightclubs, notes from the latest song hits can be heard dancing into the night until they blend with the stars. Welcome to The Greater Point Pleasant Area!!
Dining
Think of the Greater Point Pleasant Area and you think of romance and mystery, beaches and moonlight, seascapes and first-rate entertainment. All these ingredients add to the recipe for fine dining at the shore. Yet, the most important ingredient for dining along the shore is the food itself, and one of the most sought-after commodities in local restaurants is seafood.
This area has long been known as a seafood lover's paradise, offering every type of marine delicacy. Who could pass up a large mouth-watering lobster that fills the plate; a flounder graced with lemon, its white meat falling from the bone; or tasty clams served with steaming broth and butter? And while seafood is naturally the best-known local fare, Shore restaurants offer enough variety to suit the most perspicacious palate.
What better way to enjoy a meal than with a panoramic view of the sweeping Atlantic horizon, as sunlight dances along miles of whitecaps? From dazzling waterfront views to Victorian charm, diners can find the proper mood for any occasion.
