• All 45 New Jersey beaches, ranked worst to best for summer 2026 (lehighvalleylive.com) — Monmouth Beach lands mid-pack in a new ranking of 45 New Jersey oceanfront beaches, described as clean, attractive, and not too crowded but with limited parking and few on-beach food options. For local residents, it’s a reassuring nod that their hometown shoreline offers a solid, low-key beach day even if it doesn’t crack the statewide top tier.
