We’ve come up with a list of 10 really good reasons that you should consider the Jersey Shore for your next vacation.

1. One Hour Drive From 5 International Airports

The Jersey Shore is only an hour away from at least five International Airports covering the Philadelphia, New York, and New Jersey regions. That means you can fly in from out of state and be laying on the beach in no time!

2. Lower Humidity Than Florida

Can’t stand the humidity in Florida? Either can we. While the Jersey Shore is not humidity free, it certainly beats Florida, and most days are very comfortable. Let the sun warm your skin without making you sweat like you’re in a rain forest.

Jersey Shore fun in October? What!?!?!?

That’s right. Sea Isle City has announced that it will be hosting an annual event each October called Octoberfest.

Octoberfest was created to be a celebration of German food and of course, beer!

The Sea Isle City Chamber of Commerce is will host the first annual Octoberfest on October 20th 2007. The event will take place from noon to 6pm.

Sea Isle’s Octoberfest has something for everyone. It will include fun family events such as a treasure hunt, face painting, pony rides and apple dunking plus a variety of fun seasonal contests including pumpkin painting contests and costume contests. And what would a Jersey Shore event be without the ultimate sand castle competition.

Family events are planned to take place from 12 noon to 4pm.

Of course the main attraction to any Octoberfest is the beer garden. Sea Isle City’s festival is no different. From 2-6pm a typical German themed Octoberfest will feature dozens of various beers. Entry to the beer garden portion of the event will cost $10.

Let me tell you a secret that most people don’t know. For Jersey Shore veterans, the best month of the year to visit the Jersey Shore is September.

September? Yes, September. It may sound like the beginning of fall, but in reality, a September vacation gives you the following benefits:

1. Smaller crowds
2. Warm water
3. Less intense sun
4. San Diego temperatures
5. Cheaper rentals

Smaller Crowds

The difference between August and September is just short of amazing. But the fact is that the kids start back to school in September, and the beach crowds are much smaller. The great thing is that the entire month of September is ripe for enjoying a day at the beach.

Warm Water

In September, you’ve literally got the warmest water of the year. The ocean has had the chance to warm up from April-August. In September, you catch the ocean water at its very peak temperature for the year.

Less intense sun

Most people agree that the sun is most intense at the Jersey Shore in July and August. A mid or late September shore vacation brings great relief from the highest intensity sun.

San Diego temperatures

You know what they say about San Diego temperatures. 70’s all year round. Well, for much of September that’s exactly what you’ll get. Comfortable temperatures, perfect for a relaxing day at the beach.

Cheaper rentals

After the first week of September, prices for rentals at the shore go down quite a bit. Plan a mid or late September week-long vacation and you could save hundreds of dollars.

Conclusion

The fact is that if you can afford to wait until September, you’ll be in for the perfect Jersey Shore vacation at the perfect time of year. Not only will you avoid the large crowds, the intense sun and the peak-season prices, but you’ll also have the best water temperatures of the year. So if your fortunate enough to have September available, why not plan your trip then. It could be the best decision you make.

Did you know that if you plan your Jersey Shore vacation on weekdays rather than weekends you can get some great deals (not to mention avoid the biggest crowds)? In fact, some places will offer you a free night stay if you plan your trip for the middle of the week.
