Seaside Park Spot Guide

About Seaside Park

South of Seaside Heights, Seaside Park is a S swell magnet, offering fun rights before other spots even see it coming. When Manasquan and other spots to the north show signs of a small S swell, it's not uncommon for Seaside Park to be twice as big and reeling.
