Visiting the Jersey Shore? Here’s what you should do

White-sand beaches and glittering bays are what draw people to the Jersey Shore, but there’s so much else on offer along this 127-mile stretch of scenic coastline. Each shore city has its own unique vibe, and the sites called out below tend to exemplify the towns themselves, from the pop-culture heritage of Asbury Park to the preservation-forward Cape May.

It’s easy to fall into a routine once you’re set on a shore town, so let this guide be a roadmap for exploring an unfamiliar locale for a day or two.

Sandy Hook

Gateway National Recreation Area at Sandy Hook

The northernmost point of the Jersey Shore is also a federally protected wildlife area, where birding, boating, and beaching are at their finest. The Gateway National Recreation Area’s Sandy Hook division is a 45-minute ferry ride from midtown Manhattan, but feels like it’s an eternity away with its seven miles of paths for biking, running, and walking, plus its stretches of white sand and surf. Gateway is also a prime place to pitch a tent—on the approved campground, of course—for a night under the stars.

Asbury Park

The Stone Pony

Called the “beating heart of Asbury Park” by the New York Times, the Stone Pony has been a pilgrimage site at the Jersey Shore for music lovers since the mid-1970s. It wasn’t uncommon to see a young Bruce Springsteen play alongside the small venue’s booked acts; in fact, the Boss is still known to make a casual appearance on stage or in the crowd. The venue, like Asbury Park itself, weathered a downturn in the last few decades, but is back with a vengeance, touting a killer summer line-up both inside the venue and on its outdoor summer stage.

Silverball Museum

Shade seekers on the Asbury Park Boardwalk will find a unique pitstop in the Silverball Museum, the museum-arcade-bar hybrid that pays homage to pinball machines from the 1960s to the present. The nostalgia-heavy destination is a walk through pop-culture history, and features a rotating collection of 600-plus machines including the 1967 Beat Time—from the height of Beatlemania—an original 1972 Atari Pong game, and the 1993 Twilight Zone game. Retro lovers, rejoice.

Ocean Grove

The Great Auditorium

The Great Auditorium, which dates to 1894, remains the cultural center of Ocean Grove, the shore town established as a spiritual getaway in the mid-1800s. Its acoustics have been compared to those of New York’s Carnegie Hall, and the auditorium has hosted memorable musicians like John Philip Sousa and preachers like Billy Sunday. The auditorium still hosts Sunday services and the spare musical act, but is worth checking out for its architecture alone. The building, a hybrid of Stick and Queen Anne styles, was constructed in just 92 working days with a stone foundation, iron bridge trusses, and a wood frame.

Ocean Township

Kane Brewing Company

A short drive inland from the beach at Allenhurst, Kane Brewing Company is an ideal place to find cover on a rainy weekend. The eight-year-old brewery has amassed a die-hard following, meaning its tasting room is lively in any weather. Brews here often take a nautical name, like Head High—the company’s signature IPA—Party Wave, or Outer Reef, but there’s nothing salty about them. Beware the brewery on release days, when lines are known to wrap around the building.

Point Pleasant

Castaway Cove Adventure Golf

Like beaches themselves, mini golf is ubiquitous at the Jersey Shore. Let Castaway Cove Adventure Golf on Point Pleasant��s Jenkinson’s Boardwalk be a jumping-off point for exploring the shore’s culture of weird and wacky putt-putt establishments.

Ocean County

Island Beach State Park

The protected seaside of Island Beach State Park offers a genuine chance to get away from it all. Absent here are the raucous crowds of neighboring Seaside Heights—yes, the town from Jersey Shore—and the commercialism that comes with a boardwalk lining a beach. This habitat protects 10 miles of shoreline where unspoiled sand dunes, tidal marshes, and maritime forests exist in their full splendor.

Barnegat Light

Shutterstock

Barnegat Lighthouse State Park

This 32-acre state park is ripe for exploring, but don’t miss its namesake lighthouse. (It’s such a big deal to the area that the town renamed itself Barnegat Light in 1948.) The tower was commissioned in 1859, but deactivated as a Coast Guard lookout in 1944. It’s the second-tallest lighthouse in the country at 172 feet, and with that stature comes open views of Long Beach Island, the Atlantic Ocean, and Barnegat Bay. But be warned: Reaching the top of the lighthouse’s 217 winding stairs requires a bit of endurance.

Ship Bottom

Ron Jon Surf Shop

This surf-shop brand with a cult following started out as a meager shack at the beach in 1959. Those original oceanside digs have been upgraded to an 8,000-square-foot shrine to all things surf and sun. Don’t forget to grab a bumper sticker with the brand’s logo on it—you’ll be in good company on the Garden State Parkway.

Galloway

Edwin B. Forsythe National Wildlife Refuge

This refuge encompasses 47,000 acres of protected coastal habitat, and it’s a prime spot to see fish and other wildlife year-round. In the winter, bald eagles and black ducks roam the area; summer welcomes turtles and great blue herons. Birders, take note: The habitat is located under one of the Atlantic Flyway’s most active migration paths, so bring your binoculars.

Atlantic City

Steel Pier at Atlantic City.

Steel Pier

Jutting 1,000 feet over the Atlantic Ocean, this 1898-built entertainment pier was home to the first Miss America pageants, and once hosted big-name acts like Frank Sinatra and the Rolling Stones. Today, its main attraction is a new 227-foot Ferris wheel, a symbol along the country’s oldest boardwalk that this seaside city of vice will always strive to reinvent itself to stay afloat.

James Candy Co.

When the James Candy Co. opened on the Atlantic City boardwalk some 140 years ago, a ride on the span’s newly introduced rolling chairs was all the rage. Now it’s easy to stroll past this attraction, which is sandwiched between a storefront for a psychic and tacky pseudo-museum Ripley’s Believe It or Not.

But stepping over its threshold will illuminate a world of nostalgia for what Atlantic City has, by and large, left behind. Here, at the longest continually operating business in the city, find classic sweets like saltwater taffy and creamy mint sticks packaged in throwback boxes. Though times have changed, their tastes remain the same.

The Quarter

Atlantic City’s reputation as bachelor and bachelorette party hotspot is earned at the Quarter, the Tropicana Hotel & Casino’s Old Havana-themed wing, which opened in 2004. Frozen drink emporium Wet Willie’s and nightclub Anthem are at the center of the action, while Planet Rose Karaoke Bar and ’70s-themed dance club Boogie Nights serve up some good old-fashioned entertainment.

Margate City

Lucy the Elephant

“No legend of the colorful Southern Jersey seashore history matches the sight of a 65-foot-high wooden Elephant astride the beach looking out into the mists of the sea, a spectacle that, according to historians, made many coastwise seamen of the tramp ships from the West Indies swear off their rum rations for days,” begins Lucy the Elephant’s fantastical official history.

And what a history it’s been: This 138-year-old feat of zoomorphic architecture has served as a tavern and as a residence to a British doctor and his family. Somewhere in the mix, it was also used as a lighthouse that signaled to rum runners during Prohibition if it was safe to come into town. Today, Lucy houses a museum dedicated to her history. Don’t miss the guided tour—the only way into the belly of the beast—that starts with a spiral staircase nested in one of her hind legs and culminates with the glorious ocean view from her crowning howdah.

Ocean City

The boardwalk at Ocean City, New Jersey.

Ocean City Boardwalk

Ocean City’s beloved 2.5-mile boardwalk is lined with novelty food joints, campy mini-golf courses with themes like Medieval Fantasy and Pirate Island, and two amusement parks—Gillian’s Wonderland Pier and Playland’s Castaway Cove—that light up the sky with flashing colored bulbs on sticky summer nights. Don’t miss a stop at Johnson’s Popcorn, a boardwalk staple since 1940 that serves up hand-tossed kettle corn coated in a thin, crispy layer of caramel.

Wildwood

The Doo Wop Preservation League Museum

The Wildwoods’ whimsical trove of Doo Wop architecture (also called Googie or populuxe in other corners of the country) gets a worthy preface at this small museum, where classic neon signs and period furniture are on display. But nowhere is the memorable 1950s style better experienced than on the street, where it’s easy to take a self-guided tour past motels with names like the Aztec, Lollipop, and American Safari. Doo Wop is wonderful, it’s weird, and it’s under threat, so don’t delay.

Naval Air Station Wildwood Aviation Museum

This little-known museum puts World War II-era aircrafts and engines within reach in a restored historic hangar at the shore. The hangar was used as an active dive-bomber squadron training facility during World War II and today is on the National Register of Historic Places for its role during the conflict. Parents and history buffs, take note: This is a prime rainy-day activity.

Middle Township

Cape May County Park & Zoo

The Victorian-era homes, antique stores, and golf courses that pad Route 9 in Cape May County hide one of the area’s most unique attractions. The Cape May Zoo is home to lions, bison, giraffes, zebras, foxes, snakes, and more, living in special habitats spread across 85 acres. The zoo is one of the finest in the world, at least according to TripAdvisor: It ranked as the 13th best-reviewed zoo in the world in 2015, falling behind much better-known destinations like those in San Diego and Beijing.

And the zoo isn’t just for kids. The grounds also feature a zipline and an aerial adventure area that helps raise money for zoo maintenance. Admission to the zoo is free, but donations are accepted (and encouraged.)

Cape May

Shutterstock

Historic Cold Spring Village

Sitting on 22 wooded acres, Cold Spring Village bills itself as an “open air living history museum that invites all visitors to find meaning, pleasure, relevance, and inspiration in the exploration of southern New Jersey’s past.” A late-1800s octagonal building on site houses historic miniatures, the Village Bakery sells period confectionaries, and hand-crafted artisan wares are sold out of a building that’s older than the United States.

While the 18th and 19th centuries appear alive and well within the town’s confines, it’s worth noting that Cold Spring Village isn’t actually a historic town but one reconstructed of period buildings from the area. But don’t let that deter you; this fascinating site is worth a visit.

Cape May Whale Watch and Research Center

One of the first eco-tourism outfits in South Jersey invites visitors to set sail onto the Atlantic Ocean and Delaware Bay in search of whales, dolphins, and marine birds. Bottlenose dolphins, loggerhead sea turtles, and humpback whales are all known to appear in the waters around the state’s southernmost point. The tours focus not only on sight-seeing, but also on conservation and cataloguing of marine life migration patterns. The company can’t guarantee a marine mammal sighting, but does offer another trip to participants in that case.

Beach Plum Farm

The 62-acre Beach Plum Farm welcomes daytime visitors to walk its grounds and grab a bite at its farm-to-table stand. The farm is home to ethically raised chickens and Berkshire hogs, and turns out flowers and vegetables throughout the season, a bounty that can be picked up at the stand on site. (The small farm has been known to churn out over 1,000 watermelons in a season.) Don’t miss one of Beach Plum’s BYOB, family-style dinners, which rival some of the best restaurants in Cape May.

Orlando, Florida Orlando is where the fun in the sun is! This central Florida location is home to theme parks, nightlife, top resorts and so much more!

Reverse Osmosis Systems Carpinteria

New Post has been published on https://www.advancedwaterinc.com/reverse-osmosis-systems-carpinteria/

Reverse Osmosis Systems Carpinteria

An Advanced Water Solutions Reverse Osmosis System provides you with high-quality water for worry-free drinking and cooking. These state-of-art filters will improve the quality of water from wells or municipal water supplies. WITH THE EQUIVALENT OVER 10 CASES OF BOTTLED WATER AT YOUR FINGER TIPS EVERY DAY, YOU’LL USE YOUR HEALTHY DRINKING WATER FOR JUST ABOUT EVERYTHING…

Your drinking water will taste as good as the best bottled water on the market right out of your tap.

Your ice cubes will be crystal clear. (The cloudiness in ice cubes is caused by the solids in your water)

Coffees, teas, and mixed drinks will taste better.

You can use great water for rinsing fruits and vegetables.

Your pets will even get so used to the water they may refuse to drink tap water again. It happens!

SOME OF THE FEATURES INCLUDE:

Sediment prefilter to remove dirt, sand, and silt.

Carbon Block filter to remove chlorine taste and odor.

High-volume, semi-permeable membrane that rejects up to 98% of most dissolved solids in your water.

Automatic shut-off control to balance production of filtered water with your needs.

We offer affordable purchase and rent-to-own options that fit your budget!

How do I turn off the RO system if it is leaking?

There are two shut off valves. One is near the cold water line going up to your hot and cold kitchen faucet. It is on the line feeding the RO system. The second one is located on top of the metal tank. Turn both handles ¼ turn to shut off the water. You can only turn the handle one way. The handle will be perpendicular to the body of the valve when it is shut off. When the handle is parallel to the tubing, it’s open.

Why is there a dark tint to my water?

The first time you use your new reverse osmosis system or after the filters have been changed, the water may have a dark tint to it. Do not worry this is normal. The carbon filter is brand new and just needs to be flushed a little more. Open the reverse osmosis faucet and allow all the water to run out. This will empty the tank and flush out the carbon filter.

My water is white or cloudy. How can I clear it up?

There are several reasons this may have occurred. Fill a glass of water and allow it to sit for a few minutes. Does the color disappear? If yes, then it is air bubbles in the line of the new system. Don’t worry; this will stop once all of the air is out of the lines. Open your new reverse osmosis faucet and allow all the water to run out. This will empty the tank and should remove all the excess air from the system. If no, it is most likely caused by a coral calcium mineralizer. Open your new reverse osmosis faucet and allow all the water to run out. You may have to do this more than once to flush the excess from the mineralizer.

Why do I hear a clicking or hissing noise coming from my system?

This noise is normal and is caused by the little black pump on the system. This pump makes your RO system more efficient by minimizing the amount of water going to the drain. The noise will stop once the tank is full of drinking water. It could take several hours.

Why is there no water coming from the RO faucet?

This can happen for many reasons.

The storage tank may be empty and simply needs time to refill.

After several hours the storage tank is not full, the system probably needs servicing.

The pre-filter may be clogged and needs replacing.

Leak detector may have been tripped and the water coming into the

RO has been turned off. Remove the sponge and put the lever down.

Check for leaks in two (2) hours and call us if the RO is leaking.

How often do I need to replace the filters in my system?

This depends on the feed water quality. The chart below is the average schedule.

Description Interval 5 Micron Sediment Pre-Filter 6-12 months Carbon Block Pre-Filter 6-12 months TFC Membrane 24-48 months or when expended Inline Post-Carbon Filter 6-12 months Ultra Violet Light 12 months Coral Calcium Mineralizer Filter 6-12 months

To insure you are getting the same water quality as when your system was new, it requires periodic maintenance. The most important of which is the timely filter changes. Failure to change filters may reduce membrane life and water quality dramatically.

Did you know? Advanced Water Solutions, Inc. recommends changing your reverse osmosis filters every 12 months. Even if the system is not used on a regular basis.

Reason: It is not just the usage level that causes the need to be changed, but time the filters spend in the system. Leaving the filters in place can increase the possibility of bacteria growth on the filters.

Top 5 Luxurious Things You Must Do In Los Cabos

One of the most popular spa and resort destinations in Mexico, the area is brimming with beautiful beaches. Venture into Cabo San Lucas or San Jose del Cabo for a city tour. See historic monuments, bustling marinas, and absorb some real Mexican culture in the busy markets of the city. Best of all, authentic cuisine is waiting around every corner.

The best time to visit Cabo is May and June, when the wintertime crowds have gone home. If you’re into whale-watching, plan to visit between December and March. If you like to fish, look to come in the late summer or fall.

Here are the top 5 luxurious things you absolutely must do in Los Cabos (after you watch our above Pursuitist video review, of course):

1. Luxury Spa Experiences

Rejuvenate your mind and body, or unwind and relax, with a fitness class or spa treatment of your choice in Los Cabos. Whether you’re looking for the latest in anti-aging treatments, or just want to unwind poolside with a deep-tissue massage, Los Cabos’ top-of-the-line facilities have something to suit every spa-goer. The Spa at Las Ventanas al Paraiso gives guests a lesson in local holistic therapies with their Essential Baja Desert Collection. At Capella Pedregal, the Auriga spa is not to be missed. Additionally, One&Only Palmilla features an amazing spa with oceanside treatment rooms, and offers yoga and Pilates classes

2. World-Class Golfing

It’s hard to choose a golf spot in Los Cabos because the quantity and quality of greens remain among the highest in the world. With eleven months of rain-free vacation play, the Los Cabos area has become one of North America’s hottest golf destinations. Most agree that you won’t be disappointed by the famous Ocean Course at Cabo del Sol, Jack Nicklaus and Greg Norman signature Golf courses at Puerto Los Cabos Resort, Diamante’s Dunes Course and Club Campestre.

3. Exceptional Culinary Adventures

Epicurean paradise is found in San Jose del Cabo and Cabo San Lucas. From elegant dining rooms to casual seafood cafés to simple taquerías, Los Cabos serves up thrilling meals. With Mexican flair, seafood is the true highlight here, as are the endless margaritas. As outside dining is a year-round luxury, the top restaurants also share gorgeous seaside vistas alongside of world-class food and wine.

4. Yacht-Life

Sip on delicious cocktails as you watch the sun dip below the Pacific horizon on a luxury yacht. As you head into the sunset, you’ll sail past Lover’s Beach, the famous Arch, and a sea lion colony. Located at the southern end of Cabo San Lucas and sandwiched between Playa del Amor and Playa del Divorcio, the Land’s End rock formations were created from the rough winds and seas of the southern Baja peninsula. It’s also an excellent diving spot, with local charters offered from Cabo’s downtown. However, no trip to Cabo San Lucas can be considered fully complete without taking a deep sea fishing adventure.

5. Relax In the Lap of Luxury

Both Cabo San Lucas and San Jose del Cabo boast many wonderful resorts and hotels, from Grand Solmar Land’s End Resort & Spa, One&Only Palmilla, Esperanza, Pueblo Bonito Pacifica, Capella Pedregal and Las Ventanas, just to name a few. The 66 rooms at the super luxurious Capella Pedregal all come with fireplaces, private terraces, and plunge pools, along with beautiful views of the Pacific Ocean and rocky cliffs. Meanwhile, the Esperanza resort is set on its own private beach, a short distance from Cabo del Sol Golf Club and Monuments Beach. One&Only Palmilla is also a delightful ultra-luxurious property right on the beach and a 10-minute drive from San Jose del Cabo. A foodie-haven, Palmilla features wonderful restaurants supervised by a Michelin-starred chef.

Top 5 Luxurious Things You Must Do In Los Cabos

Los Cabos offers a variety of activities, adventures and attractions for affluent travelers. From shops, trendy restaurants to stunning spas, Los Cabos, located at the southern tip of the Baja California peninsula, also offers an array of outdoor activities and experiences under the sun. One of the most popular spa and resort destinations in Mexico, the area is brimming with beautiful beaches. Venture into Cabo San Lucas or San Jose del Cabo for a city tour. See historic monuments, bustling marinas, and absorb some real Mexican culture in the busy markets of the city. Best of all, authentic cuisine is waiting around every corner. The best time to visit Cabo is May and June, when the wintertime crowds have gone home. If you’re into whale-watching, plan to visit between December and March. If you like to fish, look to come in the late summer or fall. Here are the top 5 luxurious things you absolutely must do in Los Cabos (after you watch our above Pursuitist video review, of course): 1. Luxury Spa Experiences Rejuvenate your mind and body, or unwind and relax, with a fitness class or spa treatment of your choice in Los Cabos. Whether you’re looking for the latest in anti-aging treatments, or just want to unwind poolside with a deep-tissue massage, Los Cabos’ top-of-the-line facilities have something to suit every spa-goer. The Spa at Las Ventanas al Paraiso gives guests a lesson in local holistic therapies with their Essential Baja Desert Collection. At Capella Pedregal, the Auriga spa is not to be missed. Additionally, One&Only Palmilla features an amazing spa with oceanside treatment rooms, and offers yoga and Pilates classes 2. World-Class Golfing It’s hard to choose a golf spot in Los Cabos because the quantity and quality of greens remain among the highest in the world. With eleven months of rain-free vacation play, the Los Cabos area has become one of North America’s hottest golf destinations. Most agree that you won’t be disappointed by the famous Ocean Course at Cabo del Sol, Jack Nicklaus and Greg Norman signature Golf courses at Puerto Los Cabos Resort, Diamante’s Dunes Course and Club Campestre. 3. Exceptional Culinary Adventures Epicurean paradise is found in San Jose del Cabo and Cabo San Lucas. From elegant dining rooms to casual seafood cafés to simple taquerías, Los Cabos serves up thrilling meals. With Mexican flair, seafood is the true highlight here, as are the endless margaritas. As outside dining is a year-round luxury, the top restaurants also share gorgeous seaside vistas alongside of world-class food and wine. 4. Yacht-Life Sip on delicious cocktails as you watch the sun dip below the Pacific horizon on a luxury yacht. As you head into the sunset, you’ll sail past Lover’s Beach, the famous Arch, and a sea lion colony. Located at the southern end of Cabo San Lucas and sandwiched between Playa del Amor and Playa del Divorcio, the Land’s End rock formations were created from the rough winds and seas of the southern Baja peninsula. It’s also an excellent diving spot, with local charters offered from Cabo’s downtown. However, no trip to Cabo San Lucas can be considered fully complete without taking a deep sea fishing adventure.

5. Relax In the Lap of Luxury Both Cabo San Lucas and San Jose del Cabo boast many wonderful resorts and hotels, from Grand Solmar Land’s End Resort & Spa, One&Only Palmilla, Esperanza, Pueblo Bonito Pacifica, Capella Pedregal and Las Ventanas, just to name a few. The 66 rooms at the super luxurious Capella Pedregal all come with fireplaces, private terraces, and plunge pools, along with beautiful views of the Pacific Ocean and rocky cliffs. Meanwhile, the Esperanza resort is set on its own private beach, a short distance from Cabo del Sol Golf Club and Monuments Beach. One&Only Palmilla is also a delightful ultra-luxurious property right on the beach and a 10-minute drive from San Jose del Cabo. A foodie-haven, Palmilla features wonderful restaurants supervised by a Michelin-starred chef.
