Fishing Party Boat Area Marina
This is where you hop aboard one of the party fishing boats that depart right from Atlantic Highlands Harbor, heading out into Raritan Bay and Sandy Hook Bay to chase bluefish, striped bass, fluke, and sea bass. The setting is hard to beat — you've got sweeping views of Lower Manhattan across the water and the Sandy Hook peninsula just to the south. Atlantic Highlands sits at one of the highest points on the Jersey Shore, so the whole area has a character that's a bit different from the typical shore town bustle.
