The Crown Jewel of the Jersey Shore
Bay Head has been a summer destination since the 1880s — a small, unhurried town of Victorian homes, wide beaches, and clean air, just 60 miles from New York City.

A Town Worth Slowing Down For
Bay Head's main street holds a handful of independent shops, a café or two, and places to stay that feel genuinely personal. The homes along the avenues are well-tended; the gardens are, too. It rewards unhurried attention.
On the National Register of Historic Places
Bay Head's Victorian cottages and summer homes have been carefully preserved since the late 1800s. What began as a summer retreat is still, very much, that.
Something on the Calendar
Bay Head's events follow the rhythm of the seasons — outdoor art, morning races, community gatherings, and quiet evenings on the beach.
