Located six (6) miles at sea, LBI is NOT about oceanfront gambling, bustling boardwalks or "spring break" attitudes.  Instead, as a barrier island, LBI consists of 18 miles of pristine, natural sand shoreline offering easy access to both the majestic pounding of the Atlantic Ocean and the tranquil allure of the bay.  In fact, LBI has been recognized as one of the "20 Best Beaches in the U.S." three years in a row by Florida International University's Laboratory for Coastal Research, noting both the quality of its white sand and the cleanliness of its waters.  Not bad when you find that a majority of the remaining top 20 "Best Beaches" are located in Hawaii!  Best yet, unlike an 11 hour drive to North Carolina’s Outer Banks (22 hours round trip!) LBI is only 2˝ hours from Allentown, PA and less than 2 hours from both Philadelphia and New York City.  Need another endorsement?  How about National Geographic Traveler Magazine which ranked Long Beach Island, NJ as one of the top five family beaches in the USA! There are plenty of activities including fine dining, excellent fishing, crabbing, surfing, swimming, boating, scenic bay and Atlantic City casino excursions (www.blackwhalecruises.com), parasailing, jet and water skiing and wind surfing.  For your convenience you may click through any web address listed in red to visit companion sites. Our home is conveniently located among the quiet, family oriented neighborhoods of Southern Beach Haven...1.3 miles south of LBI’s “Bay Village” with its seaside shopping, bayfront recreation, arcade/amusement & water parks.  Within a short, 3 block walk of our home you'll find: Beach Haven's newly installed hockey/skate arena & playground; Hand dipped ice cream and deli sandwiches from the Black Dog Deli Cafe; Convenient equipment rentals from Jobes Seashore Emporium offering everything from bikes to boogie boards, beach umbrellas to VHS movies - for advance reservations and/or delivery during your stay, visit (www.jobeslbi.com); and The Ancient Mariner bait and tackle shop for the excitement and relaxation of surf fishing.  For area restaurants, activities, and a calendar of upcoming events you may simply click on the "Fun Things To Do" page. Even though our home is being made available for rent through a local LBI realtor/representative, we prefer to offer our home directly to responsible families at reduced rates.  If you're thinking of spending your summer vacation at the beach... consider Long Beach Island as a potential destination... And should you choose to visit, we invite you to share all of the comforts of our home while you're away from yours.                                                                                                                                            Ask for John at 1-866-876-8990 or                                                                                 email inquiries to: LBI-Beachhouse@JerseyShore-Vacation.com  Notable Guest Book Quotes: "Great house.
