Welcome!

Welcome to JERSEY SHORE PUBLICATIONS ONLINE, the internet version of our popular magazines, guidebooks, and maps about Ocean and Monmouth Counties at the Jersey Shore. 2008 marks our fifteenth year of publishing magazines, guidebooks, maps, internet sites, and beautiful books about the Jersey Shore.

Currently featured is the spring edition of JERSEY SHORE, the magazine celebrating the Jersey Coast in Ocean and Monmouth counties. Our spring issue, formerly known as Jersey Shore Home & Garden, now bears the same name as our fall/holiday edition, which has been published for the past fourteen years. With the name change (and simplification of our identity) comes expanded editorial content and a new design. We will continue to feature all the home and garden articles and guides you've come to expect plus wider editorial coverage to include more Jersey Shore related features and guides, making our two seasonal issues complete “Jersey Shore” magazines for Ocean and Monmouth counties.

In addition to publishing JERSEY SHORE in the spring and fall/holiday seasons, we will continue to publish our popular guidebooks and maps, JERSEY SHORE Vacation Magazine, JERSEY SHORE Vacation Map, and LONG BEACH ISLAND Vacation Guidebook & Map in the summer.

JERSEY SHORE Magazine and JERSEY SHORE Publications Online are designed to bring you a wealth of information to help make life more enjoyable “down the Shore.” If you're a local resident or a long-time visitor, you may find things you haven't discovered or be reminded of offerings 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.

Throughout our magazines and this website you'll see paintings by some of the Shore's most talented artists. Many of these paintings, as well as other works by these artists, are available for purchase. Please look under Art & Antiques for a comprehensive guide to galleries in our area and under Jersey Shore Artists & Artwork for a gallery of Jersey Shore artists and their works which have appeared in our publications.

Explore and you'll find current weather forecasts, a comprehensive calendar of events, and area maps and directions around the Shore. You'll also find many places to go and things to do including area towns and attractions, theaters and entertainment, activities, beaches, parks and recreation areas, public golf courses, historic sites and museums, lighthouses, and more.

You'll also find comprehensive guides to accommodations, stores and shops, art & antiques, shopping malls, home & garden, real estate, hospitals, higher education, and more. Also, our guide to dining out is one of the best sources for restaurants and nightlife at the Shore including Sunday Brunch as well as seafood markets, coffee houses, and specialty food stores. You'll also find special sections about Spring Lake, Red Bank, and the Bayshore Region.

A few words about our JERSEY SHORE Home & Garden, the unique and useful resource for home and garden products and services in Ocean and Monmouth counties at the Jersey Shore. JERSEY SHORE Home & Garden is published inside JERSEY SHORE Magazine (distributed during the spring and fall/holiday seasons). Whether you're a new home owner or working on your “fix-it-upper,” throughout our magazine and website you'll find valuable articles and information on where to go to make the goals you have for your home a reality. Our goal in creating this guide is for you to use it as a permanent reference and resource in realizing the dreams you have for your home.

Please be sure to bookmark our site for future reference as we will be updating it regularly with new information, features, and artwork.
