welcome! Welcome to the New Jersey Shore, and thank you for reading JERSEY SHORE Vacation Magazine and its companion map, the JERSEY SHORE Vacation Map. (Hopefully you found it right alongside this guidebook!) Our publications and website are designed to bring you a wealth of information to make your life more enjoyable "down the Shore." If you're a long-time visitor or a local resident, you may find things you haven't discovered or be reminded of offer- ings you may have forgotten. When using these resources, you'll find a myriad of information to make your time at the Shore more rewarding and exciting. On our covers and throughout our pages, we are proud to present paintings and photographs by some of the Shore's most talented artists and photographers. This summer's covers, "Last Summer" and "Beach Buddies," by artist Mary Jo Austin of Lavallette feature the Lavallette boardwalk (the summer before Superstorm Sandy) and kids at play on the Lavallette's beach. Throughout our guides, you'll find many places to go and things to do including area towns, farmers' markets, a calendar of events, attractions and activities, public golf courses, parks and recreation areas, historic sites and museums, lighthouses, theaters, and more. You'll also find comprehensive guides to accommodations, stores and shops, art galleries, real estate, and our dining out section—one of the best sources available for restaurants and nightlife at the Shore. Please be sure to see our coffee table books about Superstorm Sandy, "After- math, Volumes I and II" by photographer David Turton, on pages 6 and 7 as well as our other beautiful books about the Jersey Shore featured on pages 90 – 99. They are all available for purchase at various stores throughout the Jersey Shore as well as online. Page through our magazine and map and visit us online. May you find inspiration and discoveries to enrich your life along the beautiful New Jersey Coast. —George Valente, Editor and Publisher 2015 marks our thirty-second year of publishing magazines, guidebooks, maps, internet sites, and beauti- ful books about the Jersey Shore.
