March is still considered “off-season” at Sea Isle City and the rest of the Jersey Shore, but you can be sure that things start to pick up as winter comes to an end.

Many South Jersey and Philadelphia residents enjoy spending their St. Patrick’s day weekend gathered together at the shore, visiting local pubs and bars, and just having a great time. Sea Isle has several bars that are open for St. Patty’s weekend and also features a 30 block St. Patrick’s day parade from 93rd to 63rd streets.

The following weekend, Sea Isle City has its annual Ocean Drive Marathon that normally brings in a decent size crowd. If you enjoy running or if you know someone who does, make sure to let them know about this great event.

Did you know that the Jersey Shore is one of the most popular Spring Break destinations in the North East? It’s true. Sea Isle City always sees an upsurge of visitors coinciding with the Spring Break schedule of many colleges and universities. Looking for a spring break location but don’t want to deal with the huge Florida crowds? Consider staying in Sea Isle City.

Visiting Sea Isle City in March can be a great way to celebrate the coming summer and to begin the thaw-out process from winter. The weather is typically in the mid-50s throughout March which is great weather for a nice long stroll along the beach.

No matter what your reason for visiting the Jersey Shore in March, the Colonnade Inn is open year round and offers affordable lodging in units ranging from 1-3 bedrooms, with great amenities like fireplaces and jacuzzis.
