Monmouth Beach

The Borough of Monmouth Beach has a land area of 1.1 square miles and is located on a barrier split of land between the Atlantic Ocean and the Shrewsbury River in the north coast area of the county. Originally developed as a resort community, Monmouth Beach is now filled with 3,655 year-round residents who are attracted to the town by the waterfront and harbor facilities. Monmouth Beach’s location between the Shrewsbury River and the sea gives this town the advantage of being about ten degrees cooler than the rest of the county in the summer.
