The Ocean Place Resort and Spa located at 1 Ocean Blvd., Long Branch, New Jersey.

The Jersey Shore, specifically the Greater Long Branch/Deal area, is experiencing a Kosher Explosion! Families that observe Kashrut are discovering that the Jersey Shore can provide an all inclusive vacation spot, much like Miami or the Mountains. Not only does the Jersey Shore boast beautiful beaches, boardwalks and a variety of Family Friendly Activities….but there are a dozen or so kosher year round restaurants and several that open just during the summer to accommodate the huge surge in population!

For years Tourism in the Deal/Long Branch area centered around Summer Homes & Seasonal Rentals….but in the last 5 years new hotels have sprung up bringing the total number of hotels to about 18 in a 5-6 mile radius. The hotels range from budget, such as Days Inn & Comfort Inn to the moderate Marriott Court Yard & Staybridge Suites and the luxurious Ocean Place Resort & Spa & Bungalow Hotel on the Ocean.

There are so many fun things for families to do at the Jersey Shore….The beaches and boardwalks are what draws folks in but then they discover the beautiful parks, golf courses, amusement parks, arcades, fishing & boating…..where can you get all this and kosher restaurants, too!

The Kosher Restaurants & of course area Synagogues are the impetus for the growth in Kosher Tourism. In addition to the many Sephardic Shuls, Chabad of The Shore & Congregation Brothers of Israel in Elberon with a Satellite location in Long Branch host many daily minyanim and of course Shabbat Services.

The variety of Kosher Restaurants, most of them supervised by the JSOR…Jersey Shore Orthodox Rabbinate, is the “cherry on top” for Kosher Vacationers….Kosher Pizza, Sushi, Japanese, Chinese, Middle Eastern/Israeli, SteakHouse, Italian, Deli, Ice Cream, Burgers…even a Seven-Eleven with a Kosher supervised section!

So come on down to the Jersey Shore for a Great Kosher Vacation!
