Don't forget your beach attire since Monmouth is 1 mile from the beach AND those over 62 get on for $0!

Monmouth is also 2 miles from Stella Maris with it's beautiful pool and wonderful pavilion!

Also know that Monmouth is 1 mile from the Long Branch beach AND one can get on to the beach for $0 if one is over 62 (otherwise it is around $5).

And Monmouth is 2 miles from Stella Maris where you can use the pool and/or sit on the pavilion and view the ocean BUT be in the shade!
