Stone Harbor and Avalon News Happenings

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. For a comprehensive look at Wildwood, North Wildwood and Wildwood Crest, this is the BEST site to visit - BuyWildwood.com
