If there’s one shore town people consistently describe as “fancy,” it’s Avalon.

Privacy and Exclusivity Wins At The Jersey Shore

Long Beach Island is huge, so not every section feels this way. Areas like Loveladies have developed a reputation for being ultra-private and extremely wealthy. For some people, that’s the dream. For others, it can feel a little intimidating if you’re just showing up with a beach chair and a Wawa hoagie.

Margate’s trendy restaurants and luxury condos have made it one of the Shore’s hottest towns in recent years, while Brigantine sometimes gets labeled as quieter and more “keep to yourself.”

Of course, what one person calls snobby, someone else calls peaceful. At the end of the day, the Jersey Shore has a beach town for literally every personality type.
