SPRING 2012 AT THE JERSEY SHORE

Spring has sprung at the Jersey Shore! After a mild winter it looks like the Jersey Shore is in for a beautiful spring season.

Spring is a great time to visit the shore with its beautiful sunny days and no crowds at the beaches, boardwalks and restaurants. And best of all, the prices for hotels, motels, restaurants and parking are much lower than in the summer – with no beach fees until Memorial Day.

This spring is especially exciting in Atlantic City with the opening of Revel, the new casino on the Boardwalk. Revel will feature several restaurants with celebrity chefs such as Robert Weidmaier from the Muscle Bar, Marc Forgione from American Cut and Alain Allegretti from Azure. The city’s newest hotel/casino will also feature two nightclubs, six pools and three live entertainment venues.

Elsewhere in Atlantic County, the biggest event is Bayfest which brings thousands of people to Bay Avenue in Somers Point for great music, food and historical reenactments. Another great event in Atlantic County is the Atlantic City Beer and Music Festival at the Atlantic City Convention Center.

In Cape May County, the Cape May Spring Festival is a great annual event. Also, the 5th annual Singer-Songwriter of Cape May will be held in at historic Congress Hall and select showcase venues in Cape May.

In Ocean County, check out the Bluegrass & Barbecue Festival at the Tuckerton Seaport and Baymen’s Museum.

In Monmouth County, the Garden State Film Festival takes place at the Paramount Theater on the Boardwalk in Asbury Park.

Of course spring is also a great time for bike-riding, fishing, golf and boating in Southern New Jersey.

Enjoy spring 2012 at the Jersey Shore!
