Beach-Haven is one of the seaside communities located on Long Beach Island, an 18-mile long barrier island off the coast of New Jersey that is a popular summer resort destination. The famous Barnegat Lighthouse is located on the quiet northern end of the island, and Beach Haven is part of Long Beach Township, which accounts for about two-thirds of the beach area on the island. Beach Haven is south of the Manahawkin Bay and is generally the busiest and most well known destination on Long Beach Island, called the "Queen City, Six Miles at Sea." The village has a year round population of about 1,400 residents, although that number swells to several thousand during the summer months. The community is a "hub" for tourists, with many fine restaurants, nightclubs, shops and boutiques, art galleries, hotels and bed and breakfast inns. Recreational activities are endless - which is what has made Beach Haven a favorite of families for generations. On the ocean side is swimming, sunning, sandcastle building, and surfing, while on the Bay side is crabbing, fishing and sailboarding. The Fantasy Island Amusement Park and Thundering Surf Water Park, the island's only amusement park, is also located in Beach Haven. The town boasts a historical district with many Victorian seaside homes and a museum that contains interesting exhibits about the island's history. Walking tours of the area are given every week during the summer season. During July and August, the Alliance for a Living Ocean runs three-hour eco-tours of the island from Beach Haven, and the local Chamber of Commerce sponsors an annual chowder cook-off in the fall.

Beach Haven Weather & Climate

East-central New Jersey , along the coast, has a humid subtropical climate with maritime influences. Continental and oceanic influences battle for dominance in the weather patterns on a daily to weekly bases. The coastal zone generally has warmer temperatures than the interior regions in winter. Sea breezes play a major role in the climate, and offer a cooling effect on hot summer days. Coastal storms, often characterized as nor'easters, are most frequent between October and April. These storms bring strong winds and heavy rains. Rarely does a winter go by without at least one significant coastal storm. Tropical storms and hurricanes are also a special concern along the coast, although plenty of warning is given for these types of storms.
