Exploring Long Branch, New Jersey. A Great Beach Day Trip from NYC

I take a day trip from New York City to Long Branch, NJ. I ride a NJ Transit train from Penn Station to Long Branch and head to the beach, which stretches for miles along the Atlantic Ocean. It’s the perfect summer spot. After hanging out at the beach, I check out some of the town’s restaurants and eat at Hummus Republic. Then I stroll the boardwalk before heading home.

I'd feel awkward filming at the beach alone. People would think I'm a freak. I felt a little tense when some of the women were looking directly at the camera. But I love the carefree way you shot this. Aint nothing wrong with enjoying the summer with your audience. Great vlog. Thanks James.

Thanks! Yeah, I definitely felt a bit awkward at first, but then got used to it.

I went here a few times, and i feel it could reach the limit on how good beaches could get. Usually the sand at other beaches are black, and mostly made of glass pebbles. But here, the sand is so fine! It’s also deep too. This beach stretches for miles. The water is really nice. I learned how to somewhat swim there. So, thanks for reviewing this beach specifically

Loved it up there. Lived in Pier Village from 2012 to 2014 and made the trip to NYC and back every few weeks on the NJ transit. Convenient way to travel from the city to the beach and vice versa.

Thanks! Yeah, it was such a beautiful day and nice beach. There are definitely more expensive beaches out there, but I feel like the 5 dollars I spent was worth it.

Nice! I hope you have a great time! I'm not sure about the palm trees, but it looks like there will be good weather there tomorrow so it should still feel a bit like summer even though it's fall.

hey Andrew, I have a question for you. Do you think that NYC and Jersey City will fusion one day? I mean these cities are both so big and so close to each other. Why are they not becoming one? Are there places where these cities already became one? And why is everybody interested in Manhattens skyline and for NJs skyline noone cares? The big questions of mankind :)
@Jamesnu
@Jamesnu 2 года назад
I see your point. A lot of people already call the shore of New Jersey along the Hudson River as NYC’s 6th borough. It takes just minutes to travel to Jersey City or Hoboken from Manhattan, for me it does feel a little bit already to be a part of New York just because of how close it is. I doubt the two cities will ever merge, but for me it doesn’t matter since I could easily go to either one of them. In fact, for me, it’s far quicker to go to Jersey City than Staten Island. But either way, I’m just glad that New Jersey is so accessible from NYC.
