Point Pleasant really has better beaches and is MUCH more family orieneted. I went to Seaside 10 years ago for the beach in college and before that for the prom ( a right of passage for teens in NJ). It is overun with teenagers and not appealing. My husband and I drive to Point Pleasant for day trips and love it.
