Ventnor City

Atlantic Ave & Newport Ave, Ventnor City, NJ 08406

Atlantic City's calm residential neighbor — a 1.5-mile wooden boardwalk that continues directly from AC's with none of the commercial frenzy, plus a long fishing pier and quieter lifeguarded sand. One of the most underrated Jersey Shore boardwalks.
