Kelly S. Andrews The Bayshore is situated on the Raritan Bay and the Atlantic Ocean and is in close proximity to New York City and other New Jersey attractions by ferry, train, or car. Along the Bayshore, you'll find great shopping, antiquing, dining, places to stay, and homes to buy or rent. You'll also find beaches for sunning and swimming or quiet exploring, and many of these true boating and fishing communities still retain the warmth and feel of the vanishing "old Jersey Shore." Its wonderful historic sites, parks, trails, scenic overlooks, and two lighthouses are some of the best and most unique in New Jersey. Whether you're visiting the Bayshore for business or pleasure, there's plenty to do and see. From its northern bay shoreline, to its pristine environmental jewel, Sandy Hook, to its hills and rolling horse pastures, along the Bayshore you'll find a sampling of everything that life at the Jersey Shore has to offer.
