Whether you stay home or go away for college; the main beaches college students visit remain the same. Mainly New Jersey is the place to go for some summer fun. Summer is a time for relaxation and to catch up with your friends. Visiting the beach and having things to do with your friends is what makes it fun. During your college years, the places remain the same as you age. These top 5 beaches in New Jersey are where college students tend to always go to:

Long Branch

Long Branch is one of the hottest meeting spots for all people to catch up with their friends. It is also the beach where all Staten Island residents tend to go mainly because of the Playa Bowls, restaurants, shops, and overall great environment!

Belmar

Belmar is definitely the beach to hit when you turn 21, because after a long day relaxing everyone goes to D'Jais to party. Also, Belmar was the first spot to have the Playa Bowls which have gotten extremely popular in recent years.

Long Beach Island

LBI is most definitely the perfect overnight getaway relaxation spot to hang with your family and friends. Plus, there is always something at all times of the day. For example, Fantasy Island is a main attraction spot consisting of amusement rides, games, and prizes. There is mini golfing on almost every corner so you'll probably never get bored.

Atlantic City

Atlantic City is the perfect place to relax on the beach during the day and also get out and enjoy the nightlife. No matter what time it is, there is always something to do along the boardwalk. Although AC is the hot place for casinos and clubs, no matter what your age you'll never be bored!

Avon/7 Presidents

Avon and 7 Presidents are the perfect beaches to hit when you want to stay low key and hopefully not see everyone you know like at Long Branch or Belmar. I definitely recommend this beach if you're trying to take that perfect selfie near the rocks for Instagram, without a bunch of people staring.
