Stone Harbor & Avalon New Jersey
Sea Isle City
and
Ocean City
Stone Harbor and
Avalon share this South Jersey island which is known as
"Seven Mile Beach". It is seven miles long but only three or four city blocks wide.
Avalon
is located at the northern end and Stone Harbor
at the southern end.
When you get to 80th Street, Avalon stops and Stone Harbor begins and
continues on until the
Hereford Inlet. Geographically it
is half-way between
Ocean City
and
Cape May.
Stone Harbor is "The Seashore at its Best".
Stone Harbor has an
exclusive
shopping district known for its quaint shops that appeal to all
whether looking for
trendy boutiques,
unusual
specialty gifts,
salons or just souvenirs
. This resort is also famous for its great
restaurants
and spectacular beach front homes. Avalon also has great
shopping
and excellent
restaurants.
Where other resorts are dotted
with "cookie cutter" condos block after block, Stone
Harbor has maintained its charming quaint town look with
mostly single family
homes - some absolutely magnificent!
Another nice feature is that the homes sit on good sized
lots which are beautifully maintained.
Tree lined streets also add to the charm. Stone Harbor boasts some of the most expensive real estate in southern
New Jersey.
Beautiful, protected
beaches
extend the 7 mile length of the island
and because the island is only a few blocks wide, you can walk from
the beach to ice cream parlors and gift shops. Stone Harbor
is a clean, quiet, family resort where you can enjoy a casual,
peaceful and relaxed seashore atmosphere.
Beach tags
are required and can be used in either Stone
Harbor or Avalon. You do not have to go far to find
churches as there are many denominations
represented in both Stone Harbor and Avalon.
Stone Harbor vacationers do not have to become beach potatoes.
There
are many
outdoor activities
in which they can participate such as the water sports or swimming,
biking,
fishing, boating,
sailing, surfing, and jet skiing, or trying their hand at tennis
(courts at 97th and 82nd Streets), volleyball
and golf. Others may just enjoy being on the beach
collecting
shells, strolling at the water's edge or soaking up the rays of the
sun. There is something for everyone. If you need more
information...... including information on
parking.....
Playgrounds for the children are
scattered all over the island,
and the municipality itself runs supervised recreational
activities including basketball, soccer, baseball, and teen dances.
Several quality
golf courses,
while not on the island, are easily reached from Stone
Harbor including the
Stone Harbor Golf Club.
If fine food, boating and socializing is
your forte, then members can enjoy
the Stone Harbor Yacht Club. Our
daughter had her wedding reception there and it was
spectacular. Besides everything else being wonderful - the sunset was magnificent.
 Stone Harbor has the only heronry sponsored by a
municipality in the United States.
The Stone Harbor Bird Sanctuary
is registered as a National Landmark by the National Park Service.
Thousands of herons are nested safely here.
Stone Harbor relies heavily on the neighboring resort
towns
of Wildwood,
Ocean City
and
Cape May
for attractions and activities. The boardwalks, amusement piers,
county park &
zoo,
historic and cultural sites are all
within a short drive.
Stone Harbor remains relatively quiet and not crowded. If that
is what you're looking for, Stone
Harbor is the place to go. There are
accommodations available for everyone.
Here is some additional information on
the neighboring resorts of
Sea Isle City
and
Ocean City.
