Normandy Beach Lodging Includes Many Attractions


Your kids will really love the Fantasy Island Amusement Park located within close range of Normandy Beach lodging. With its ornate lampposts and Tiffany glass chandeliers, the park has a Victorian look. The park also has a giant Ferris wheel, Merry-Go-Round, arcades, and lots of other rides.


If all the activity on the beach and at the amusement park makes you hungry after a long day, Chef Craig at the Crab's Claw restaurant in Lavallete is serving up broiled shrimp in fresh garlic and broiled Mahi Mahi. For something a little different, try the Labrador Lounge in Dover. They serve great salads, Calamari, and Duck Quesadillas. Come escape this summer to a waterfront home located on a lagoon in the private, quiet community of Jersey Shore condos.


On the island", as the locals say, Normandy Beach has the Atlantic Ocean on one side and Barnegat Bay on the other. There is a farmer's market selling fresh produce, and numerous restaurants nearby. You can drive 10 minutes south to famous Island Beach State Park (for nature lovers) or Seaside Heights (for lovers of amusement parks and noisy fun). Or drive 50 minutes north to Manhattan and NYC.

This area is a prime destination during the summer.

Special Instructions

Normandy Beach is located at Exit 98 on the Garden State Parkway.


There are four different places to eat within only seven blocks of the house.
